1 month out....

Hello everyone. I am one month out and doing pretty good. I am hoping to really start walking/swimming more than I am. I have had a problem with taking my anti-depressant medication so now that I am able to actually eat, I will get more of it in. I have lost a total of 26 pounds (as of last week). I will weigh again at the end of this week. I have started eating and making sure I chew the heck out of things. Like everyone says, you will find things you can and cannot eat. Everyone is so different. I look forward to meeting and making some friends. Nicole

I will be joining you on the losing side soon. My VBG is scheduled for September 18th. I'm very excited (and nervous). It was encouraging to read about someone doing so well 1 month out. 26 lbs is great!

DEAR NICOLE, YOU SOUND LIKE YOU ARE ON YOUR WAY, GIRL. I`M SO HAPPY FOR YOU. I`M HAVING OPEN VBG, IN JUST A FEW DAYS, 9-16-03, I HOPE I DO AS WELL AS YOU. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK. LOVE, ELAINE
