Almost 2 weeks out and...........................

As of today I have lost 26 lbs... I went to see my doctor today and the nutritionist, they were so happy with my progess thus far... I just kept thinking and saying over and over "OH MY GOD!" as I stepped off the scales and walked to the room... This is soooo amazing... So far I am doing well and am keeping everything down other than I do have some nausea in the AM... I am very sleepy most of the time... I cat nap once in while throughout the day... Doc said to expect to be tired for a good month or so... Well thats my update for now... Just had to share this news with you all... I'm so excited to be on my way...... Chelle In NNY

Chelle, Congratulations on your 2 week checkup. It sounds like you are doing great! Best wishes for continued success. Mary

Thank you very much Mary! Best wishes to you as well for the New Year... It's hard to believe we're passing another year already... But I am ready for a more happy and healthy New Year of 2005... Chelle

Hi Chelle, Congrats on your 2 week check up, This sounds so familiar, I also lost about 30 pounds the first 2 weeks, and it is normal to be tired just remember to drink all your fluids and then drink some more...lol In time it will all be old hat, I promise, it does get easier with time, it can be a bumpy road at first , but it's normal , I had my Wls on March 22nd 2004 and , it is so amazing the changes you will go through, you have to listen to your new lil pouch it will let you know what it wants in time, everyone is different... Just follow your doctors plan and you will do wonderful!!! God Bless Mary

Hi Mary! Thanks for the congrats... I'm drinking as much as I can but its hard to get in what I need right now... This little pouch is a hard one to figure out becasue sometimes even fluids make me feel stuffed... I am drinking lemonade this afternoon and it makes me feel full... It's weird... I'm being a good girl and following what the doc has told me to do... I am ready for the tiredness to be over with though I know that much... I am usually on the go but now I am just too tired to go much of anywhere... I hope my body kicks back into a faster gear because this "idling" thing is so hard... Anyways, thanks for the congrats and well wishes you've sent my way... they are much appreciated!! Chelle
