One month surgiversary!

Hi friends;

Well, at this time one month ago I was getting ready to go to the hospital. It's been an interesting time ever since.

Ever since pushing myself to have at least 60 oz of fluid a day, I feel better.

The wildest thing I've done so far is I drank decaf coffee 2 days before I was supposed to. I'm a rebel :)

Stats:

Highest ever weight: 301 lbs

Surgery weight: 290 lbs

Current weight: 259.6 lbs

Total weight lost from highest weight: 41.4 lbs

Total weight lost since surgery: 30.4 lbs

I'm so glad I found this group; it's been so supportive and I look forward to being successful.

Sounds like you are doing great-- congrats on the hard work paying off :)

Congrats!

Congratulations! Great job on the weight loss! You're doing great! 

It sounds like you're doing fantastic. I never came close to losing 30 pounds in a month! Keep up the good work.

30lbs???? That's awesome!  

Wow! Congratulations! You have done an excellent job!

Congratulations Cheremiste!  You should be very proud of yourself, but try to contain that rebellion!

Awesome job - I'm about 2 weeks ahead of you.  The water is still very tough for me too!

Congrats! Yahoo so happy for you! WOW down 30lbs  in a month is outstanding!

Yes as hard as it is in the beginning do work on getting in your fluids, you will feel so much better if you do.  I to struggled in the early days to get my fluids in and there were for sure days I was dehydrated and as soon as I "got the hang of it" and started drinking more I just continually felt better and better.

Hope you will stick around and keep us posted on your journey, you are doing awesome!!

Best of luck!
