2 month post-op pictures

It's been 2 months since my surgery,, as promised I'm posting new pictures. I merged three pictures together (pre-op, 10 day post-op and 2 month post-op) so you can see the difference. The healing process has been slow. They say it takes anywhere from 2 to 6 months or longer,, I believe them. LOL. I still have little aches and pains, depends how I move or stretch. The front of my stomach and the tops of my legs are still numb and swollen, but I can tell its getting less numb and swollen as time

so mario wants to "trim down" not lose weight but lose body fat. today i was whining about being 30% body fat..then mario said yeah i want to lose my body fat and i was like what body fat?! i got mad because i said if i was to eat like bad for an entire week i would gain some kind of weight back while they would maintain. so not fair. then mario said we would probably actually lose weight if we ate junk and i was like WHAT?! then he was like yeah it just goes right through our system..probably b

invisible, i think NOT

i've been eating cookies, chips, chocolate, basically any type of sweets for the past several days. i can't eat real food. everytime i try to eat a regular meal the food will get stuck. i'm kind of annoyed with myself. i feel like i've gained a bajillion pounds once again and i probably won't make my goal for my birthday/new year. the boys want to take me to disneyland for my birthday but nothing has been discussed or finalized as of yet maybe we'll talk tonight about it. giovanni has been too "

Just Started New Banster

Hi All, I am thinking that someone is reading this besides me. If nothing else this is therapueatic (sp). So here goes my accounts of yesterday evening adventures as well as todays events. I am on day 8 or 9 depending on weather you count the day of the surgery. Everything seems to be going well except for the constipation/back pain I discussed yesterday. I finally got in touch with the doctors and they instructed me to take Milk of Magnesia. They also indicated that with the change in diet,

Just starting

Hi all, I had the Surgery last week December 2nd 2008 to be exact. I must admit I was very excited and slightly scared. It has been 7 days and I have been doing great on this liquid only diet. I can not believe I made it this far without reaching to the dark side. I have just started introducing creamy soups. I am constipated to the tenth power and I am currently waiting for the doctors to return my call. I hope this is constipation and nothing serious. Ihave a strong lower back pain on my

winter jackets in vegas ;D

i went to old navy yesterday and got this they only had XL available and it's too big. i hate it but i love the style and color and the cute little fur hoodie thing. i should have gone to another old navy and see if they have it in large but old navy kind of runs a size bigger so i should get a medium. i love everything fitted now because if i wear baggy stuff i look weird and i feel weird. like my old hoodies that used to be snug on me are all loose on me now. i hate looking in the mirror b

Countdown to Surgery

SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 20, 2008: Wow! I made the decision. I scheduled the date--December 22, 2008. I paid the deposit. I made airline reservations. I filled out and faxed all of the necessary paperwork. I'm ready. I'm ready for a new beginning. I'm 46 years old. I have been on diets almost my entire life. I remember being teased about my weight in elementary school--2nd grade, I think. I had to have "chubby" clothes. That set the stage for the rest of my life. I can't tell you the number of times

4 weeks since LBL surgery

It's been 4 weeks since my LBL surgery. Not much has changed, the healing process is very slow. I have been cutting and pulling stitches as my incision heals. I had to ask for help on a few of the stitches, my good friend and biking buddy used to be a nurse, she had to use her medical skills to remove several of my stitches that my wife couldn't get. It helped to share a bottle of white zin as we did this, it made it fun and she did a great job. I still have a couple stitches left in my incisio

Almost 3 months after surgery, down 30 pounds

I'm now down 30 pounds! Yeah! It's been coming off very slowly, but at least it's coming off! I've had one fill so far, and will go for another after Thanksgiving. Must say I can't stomach protein shakes any more. If I have to fast, I'll use the Unjury Chicken Soup flavored packet. That what I used before and after my fill. I found an awesome new food product at the store. It's Phillips Steam In Bag Shrimp. It comes in different varieties. One bag contains two servings of shrimp. On

I need some motivation.....

Well .... I still haven't lost any weight in the last little bit --- I think its completely because of my crummy diet and lack of exercise. I did change that two days ago - where I started my Wii Fit again and do about an hour of step on it and changed my diet to be completely healthy foods for a week before my next fill. Its discouraging and I have to stop weighing my self each day because its depressing. I feel good though -- I've lost in inches and I can feel it in my clothes and from the
