Just checking in.

welcome to the bench and congrats on your progress so far!!

I'm so glad you are not having any regrets!! You are going to do awesome!

Me too! I've read so many people saying that they were so upset in the first week or so. I was scared that it would be like that with me. But I went in there with a smile on my face, came out with a smile and have been that way since.
Liquids are not necessarily a "happy time" for me... especially with the food dreams I had last night... argh... but I know it's only temporary...

BTW. I love your new Avi... you look beautiful!

thanks a lot! It is one of my favorite new pics of me.

The food dreams are only temporary.  Try sugar free popsicles.  They saved my life during the liquids stage and even now sometimes!!  I love them!

Glad to hear everything went so well!  Congrats and here's to MUCH more successing

hiya kara:

Congrats on a successful surgery. Welcome to the other side... its an awesome place to be.

PS- Crystal Light makes a great tasting ice pop now.

Hi Kara,

I am happy everything went so smoothly.  20 pounds already wow.

I can't wait until I get on the loser's bench.

How is the gas pain?  I am hearing a lot of people have a pain in their shoulder from the gas.

Wishing you a very speedy recovery.
