Have lost about 14 pounds since my heaviest weight.  Still tired, but getting in two nice walks with my dog a day.  Also doing some light yoga on my Wii.

I was going to give golf lessons today, but I was one week early.  Glad too.  My legs are weak. 

Food, well still on protein shakes and have fix two kinds of soup for me this week.  Fresh tomato soup and onion soup.  I have read that several have went to the mush with doctors approval... but mine wanted me to stay on liquids for Three weeks.  So Friday will be my transition to more solid foods.  Hope to see what everyone else is eating. 

I see we can Chat live.  Does anyone want to meet during the day?  or evening... maybe once a week to touch base?  Let me know

I am so glad everyone is sharing.  I still don't have the real hang of this Group - knowing how to let people in ...  So I make Maxicat and Nursegirl Group Administrators to to help me. 
The pain is almost gone.  Still have a little twinge.. but am happy that I have completed the first groo some two weeks.

Thanks to you all for sharing.  Ask as many people as you want to enjoy our forum...

best

I am so tired, I could sleep all day.  I've walked a couple of times a day with my dog. 

I can't wait to get back my energy...  today I'm rather scared.  I'm taking my mother shopping.  Although she is 84, she is more energetic than any 50 year old.  My eyes look like they are tired.  Makeup just doesn't work.  Hopefully the day will be short.  I pray that it is.

Let you know shortly.

Please anyone else please chime in.

July - how do you feel?

because we were sleeved this month, I hope over the next 6 months we can share our pains and maybe with acknowledgement of our pains, it can help with  maybe what to expect..

Me... well I was sleeved July 16, 2010.  I have struggled not to take pain medicine, but broke down night before last.  Then of course I was druggie for all day yesterday.

I got in two walks (about two blocks).  I am determined to get over this in quick time.  Although when I yawn I feel as if something is pinching.

I woke up about 4:30 this morning with a pain in my stomach.  about 3 or 4.  I took one Tums then went back to bed.  Slept to 7:30.. without pain. 

Then a few minutes ago I turned on the Wii and did a couple of warm up and I broke in a sweat.  that's not a good sign. 

Turned off the Wii

Now am going in to take shower and hopefully see my mom today.  She doesn't know anything about the surgery and hopefully my actions won't give me away. 

Better run.

please post what's going in your life.
Linda
