ALMOST 8 WEEKS... WOW..

May 6th will be 8 weeks since surgery for me.  It is hard to believe that it has already been that long.  Been some bumps in the road for sure but nothing insurmountable, all a learning (and growth) experience.  My oldest daughter is now about 15 lbs heavier than me and already inheriting a few of my shirts.  She doesn't qualify for and wls and is hardheaded as far as junk foods and sodas go.  My youngest daughter and her husband and 8 month old son came in from California for 6 days for a family get-together (1 year anniversary of my husbands' passing) and we spent the whole time on the beachfront in a wonderful environment/beach house.   This is the first they have seen me in a year and were very happy and surprised (along with my brother-in-law and his wife).  I still managed to lose 2 lbs while they were here.  My biggest SV is that on my tickers, my weight lost is now a higher number than pounds to lose  Only 6 lbs to Ondereland.  I haven't seen that since 1980.  Hard to believe it IS going to happen for me.  This is the best thing I have done in many many years and would do it over again, and again and again if I had to .  Hoping y'all have a wonderful weekend and pleasant WLS journey.  Huggs  Pam

happy for you. enjoy your family

Congrats you're doing great! My surgery was 3 days before yours so I'm just over 8wks. Started on soft foods tuesday. I've felt great. I'm down 43 lbs and feeling really good too!

Glad to hear you're doing so well. And I can totally relate about the ticker. That was one of my big goals, and it brought a lot of joy.

Congrats on all your success.

Congratulations!  It sounds like things are going really well for you.  Keep up the great work!
