Thanks. As for as challenge, I have been blessed. The only real problem was my brain wasn't working right so my doctor did blood work and sure enough my B12 and Iron were really low. I was taking my supplements but my doctor said everyone is different and started sending me for weekly B12 and gave me more iron. Now I go every two weeks for B12 and she said I will most likely need this for the rest of my life. I have had low iron since I was 12 years old so I was not surprised that it has got worse post-op. I can eat everything of course I haven't tried any junk food or fast food and really don't miss it. I do eat popcorn which I know is not the best but I love it and it was always my favorite snack. All my life I have grated cheese and put it on popcorn so this continues the only difference is the cheese is low fat well and the portion is a lot smaller. I still drink grape flavored water because plain water still makes me uncomfortable. Wish I knew then that would stop. Tell your friend Dr. Hagen is the most amazing man ever. You take care honey,

Thanks, hopefully 6 months will be my magic number cause I have always loved water. I try weekly.

You look AMAZING!  Way to go!!  I can't wait to hit the 100 pound milestone!  I still have a ways to go though but with inspiration like this, I know it will be here before I know it.  Someone asked me how I'm feeling and I have to say I'm beginning to feel amazing!  I only wish I had been able to do my surgery years ago!  I had the DS on Dec 31, 2014... Thanks for inspiring me!
