1st Post op Doc. Appt. :)

I went to my 3 week check up on Friday 3/3/06, and I am happy to say all involved were happy about my weight loss of 18 lbs. and I am HAPPY to have started my journey on pureed for the next week.so far so good.I eat only what they say and I am full and still cont. to lose. The only thing is when I was on liquids all the time I could remember to drink, but now that I have food in my belly I forget to drink as much because I am not hungry. I am working on it . Beth

That's great news Beth! Contratulations! Keep up the good work. I guess practice makes perfect! Hugs, Amy

18 pounds! That is wonderful! I don't know about you, but I didn't find out they changed the diet for us until I got to my 1st post op appointment. I was one happy camper when I found out only 1 week of puree-lol. I go Tuesday for my first fill. Kristine

Hey Beth Congrats . You should be proud of yourself. You are well on your way. Keep up the good work and you we see how fast you hit your goal weight. Louis

Beth, Congrats on your weight loss hun What a great start. Take it slow and learn, it takes a while to find out what works and what doesn't. I am out 9 months today and still learning. I wish you all the best! Take care Debra P

Thank You ALL for your GREAT comments. I look forward to this sight every day to see whats new and all the GREAT info and positive feed back. Beth

Beth Great loss ....... I had my first check up last week lost 15lbs but now I am on soft foods I will not be adjusted for another two - three weeks. I find that I am hungry appetite is the same because there is no restriction yet. Can not wait until I have my first adjustment. Don't want to gain back weight. Anyway, I do attend support group which I find helpful. Barb
