WOW back to work already? I was planning on taking my 6-8 weeks off. Guess i dont need that much time. Did you have your surgery lap or open. Mine will be open but not til JULY .... i wi**** was sooner. Congratulations on your weight loss. !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hola Rosa, sorry to hear about your pain. I will pray that it's not something bad. I did have some discomfort on the left side of my abdomen. It was hard to move around, especially in bed. I never had to take pain meds for it. If that is the pain youn are experiencing, you shouldn't worry to much about it. It will subside, my doctor explained that it is because that is the side that they do most of the manipulating on........ If that is not what you are experiencing then please call your doctor, he may want to see you....Take care of yourself, the doctors can't help you if you don't contacct them. I hope all is well, congratulations on the weight loss...welcome to the loing side God Bless, Carol

Well Carol, you were right.. that nutricionist was just going on and on with lots of info. But you know what was really funny, she didnt tell me anything that I didnt already know from talking you everyone here. Funny uh?? She also said that an unflavored protein drink would be fine in babyfood considering the amount. now i have to see a phychiatrist for my eval then PAT at the hospital next month. Only 52 days til surgery. No i'm not counting.

Rosa, God will be with you through this special journey. Never forget that he is next to you, helping you pull through it all and of course, he is your biggest supporter. Don't give up..keep reaching for your goal. At times the process will seeem fruitless and remorsful but honey, don't loose sight of why you started this journey and the wonderful years to come...................God Bless you, I know that you will be great!!!!!!!! Thank you for the good wishes, likewise, "Feliz dia de las Madrecitas"... Your friend and supporter, Carol

Hola amiga. Well, I'm doing fine...my doctor decided to give me an additional two weeks..grand total of 8 weeks. He said that I work with heavy equipment and he doesn't want me to strain my abdominals. It's nice that I can stay home with my precious little son. I love playing mommy, baking cookies, having three homemade meals, attending school functions...Soooooo sad it has to end I haven't experienced any form of sickness (thank God). I have lost a total of 26 lbs. I think that it's verrrrrrryyyy slllooowww, but the doctor tells me that I'm right on target. He told me that the heavier you are the faster you lose the weight and I was, the highest lowest, go figure... Sad to say that I haven't really been keeping up with the gym. I will be going to a wedding in San Diego this weekend so I'm very busy; shopping, taking clothes to cleaners, haircuts for everybody, arranging hotels, etc......When I come back I will pour myself into the gym again...I just bought a pilates DVD and a mat. I put the DVD on to try it, WOW, it kicked my butt. I think that I should lose more weight before attempting to do it again, I'm not that flexible, yet Elisa, God Bless and keep encouriging each other, you and your hubby will be the sexiest couple ever....... warm regards, Carolbear
