Had to take me lil girl to the pediatrician today. I asked if I could weigh myself (since I was DYING to find out) and gingerly stepped on the scale. I lost another 8 pounds.
But I noticed my loss is slowing down since I have been on solids. It is no longer more than a pound a day. I am already fearing the weight will come back on instead of going away. I am scared I did this for nothing. I am afraid of failing.

Month two
YES! I made it over a month! Not that I thought I wouldn't, but it IS an accomplishment.
I have no idea what I weigh. My home scale doesn't read over a certain weight (ahem, 300 pounds). In fact, it will read 299.5 then "OL." I am guessing for OVERLOAD! nice. BUT! I am currently wearing a size 26 pant. I used to be a SCREAMING 28, but now I'm in a sorta comfortable 26! WOO!
Hmmm. Oh, overate again. Now I see why I need to separate my fluids from my meals. I was drinking a protein shake and decided to have an scrambled egg.....WRONG! I felt like my food was in my throat and like I needed to throw up. I lay in bed, cursing myself, willing myself not to throw it back up, thinking I would feel better if I did(!), and feeling clammy all the while. Stupid, stupid, STUPID!
I was better an hour later. I HAVE to learn to slow my roll. So, I will notice the satisfied feeling, instead of the "Oh, shit! I did it again!" feeling.
I have been walking in the morning. I do about a mile and it takes about 22 minutes. My lil girl has been joining me sometimes. But she goes back to school next week, so I will be doing it alone after I send the kids off. I like to do it early because it has been so Africa hot. It was 105 degrees today.
My brother talked to one of my former co-workers. She had the surgery like two or three years ago. She told my bro, if I follow the rules, I will do okay....Like, duh.....isn't that how it works?? My main concern is in 18 months...When I will be likely to put the weight back on...
Oh, got my period yesterday. YAY!!! It is like good news and bad news....I am not pregnant!! but I have my period. One more of these and I go BACK. ON. THE. PILL. and NEVER have a period AGAIN! But I have to survive this one first. Blech. Dude, there is a reason I didn't have a period for almost four years.....
The reunion honeymoon is over. I am like, "eh. whatever." There are only two or three people I still talk to, but I am not wasting my days on the internet catching up on the stupid Class of '87 website.
Trying to remember to take all of my supplements is a pain! ha. I have started taking my iron in the morning with my vitamins. Then I have to remember to take my calicum later. I guess I could mix it with my evening protein shake.

Day 30
Okay....Where did I leave off?
Oh yeah, bread. Well, leave it to me to screw up some more. But I did find some interesting protein sources! Sugar-Free FUDGESICLES! 3 grams of protein for two bars. woo hoo. Protein and chocolaty goodness!
I also love the Gerber chicken sticks. 10 grams of protein in one little jar.
The baby food meat jars have 8 grams of protein in one TINY jar. The chicken is okay tasting, but the beef was ..... yuck... I added a teaspoon or two of ketchup and--VOILA! It was like eating a hamburger patty! Well, an obliterated patty.
One of my classmates (she had the surgery four years ago) told me about a protein drink supplement called Pro Complex by Optimum Nutrition. 55+ grams of protein. That is almost my daily requirement!
This past Saturday, hanging out with my family and ended up in Newport Beach. One of THE best gelato establishments is in NB. It is called Gelato Paradiso. They have some very YUMMY ice creams and sorbettos. I decided to give it a try....er, a sample. I licked Lemoncello, Watermelon, Chocolate Hazelnut, Cherry and Cookies & Cream. All were very tasty and went down easy. No bad reactions. No dumping. No shakes or chills, no nothing....WOO! And all I did was sample at the store and and have a taste of my family's orders. I don't expect to be placing my own order anytime soon. I just enjoyed the little bit that I got.
Sunday was a different story. My nephew's birthday. I tried a tiny sample of birthday cake. It was light and fluffy and strawberry. I tried another tiny sample. Then a third. Well, that did it....I had to run to the bathroom. I didn't vomit, but I felt like it. I got all sweaty and nauseous and dizzy. Scary. Sipped some Splenda sweetened fruit punch and felt better. Later I got hungry and ate a couple chicken sticks. I guess I ate them too fast, because I got a tummy ache and had to lay down. I had a tummy ache all the way home, too. Bummer.
Monday, I volunteered to help register students at our local high school. I ate some of my world famous chicken sticks for breakfast and drank water to keep my tummy content while I sat there. When I got home, I scrambled an egg with Ricotta (pronounced ree-GO-tha) cheese. Then I wolfed it down. BAD idea. Too much food, too fast. Got real nauseous again. I thought it was coming up for sure this time, but I managed to keep it choked down.
Still feeling my way around.....

Day 23
I goofed up again....I got excited about the prospect of eating bread. YAY! BREAD! But I have to soak it in milk or broth to break down the gluten. So, last night a wolfed down a LARGE piece of bread soaked in milk. Already back to my old nighttime habits. But I paid for it....did not feel good AT ALL. I went to bed in hopes I wouldn't barf.
I am still getting used to the feeding schedule. The example menu the weight lost center gave me has me eating every two-three hours and drinking something (fruit juice, veggie juice, meal supplement) in between. Then the instructions claim I need to sip water IN ADDITION to my meals and liquid meals, BUT NOT DURING. I have to "sip water 30-60 minutes after or before a meal." Okay, if I am eating/drinking every stinking hour when am I supposed to "sip water" and get my 64 ounces!?!??!?!?! OMG, has anybody tried this stupid guide?
Here is a picture of the remainder of my breakfast from this morning.
That is an egg mixed with a little milk and scrambled. A half a piece of bread (one of them BIG slices, not a wimpy Wonder bread) toasted. Granted, I did eat right after taking all of my pills and vitamins, but I got very full, very fast. And that is the small teaspoon that comes with the silverware set, not the big one.
I need to realize I have to take my meds/vitamins as soon as I get up and then an hour later eat some breakfast. I waited waaaaaaay too long this morning to do either and I got very shaky and feeling ill, even after I ate.

Day 22
YAY! 
I got to eat my egg today! Well, I only ate half of it because I was snacking on some ricotta cheese at the same time. I was disappointed that I didn't eat the whole egg as I have been looking forward to it for a LONG time.
Oh! And I discovered something! Remember those Vienna Sausages? They look like little penises in a can? Well, a baby food maker has them jarred in water. I tried a jar today and they were GOOD! Not filet mignon, Emeril Lagasse good, but good for not eating for three weeks good. LOL And 10 grams of protein to boot.
I have new pictures. I think I look the same.

Day 20
I was looking at my Weight Watchers "Membership Book" recently. It is a record of my weight loss over a period of 24 weeks.
It took me 21 WEEKS to lose 23 pounds. On the average, I lost 3 pounds a week. That is when I didn't gain(!) or stay the same. I saw that I stayed the same weight three weeks in a row. And I noticed a 10 pound weight gain in two months. I never made my 10% goal in nine months (that is what ended up being recorded on the book, apparently I didn't go every week!). I went for four months straight and then bounced around after that.
THAT is why I am a WLS patient. This is permanent folks. I cannot give up after four months.

Day 19 (22 pounds)
Went to my surgeon for two-week follow up. Nevermind that it is almost three weeks, but WHATEVER.
I was weighed (of course) and lost another 7.25 pounds. That was seven pounds in four days, 22 pounds total. Averages out to be 1.15 pounds A DAY! WOO!
I told my suregon that the first week and a half was sheer torture! And that I hated him, the PA's, the Nurses, ME.....But everything is all good now. And I cannot wait for my EGG & COTTAGE CHEESE breakfast on Monday!

Day 17
I goofed up bad last night. I made some instant mashed potatoes with milk. But I didn't make it thin enough. Then I didn't measure out a specific amount. "I can eat until I'm satisfied!" I thought to myself. WRONG!
I. ate. too. much. I probably ate 1/2 cup instead of a 1/4 cup. Very hard to judge because my beebee girl was helping me eat. Any road, I was very, very full. My tummy hurt real bad and I felt like shit. Luckily, I didn't puke it all back up. However, I went to bed at 6:30 P.M. or something like that.
I found that I am very tired today. I don't know if it is from all the walking I have been doing for the last two days or if I am still recovering from the reunion. But I was yawning HARD all morning. I even took a nap from 10 to 11. (lol - thinking about yawning is making me yawn!)
OH! OH! OH! good news! I had a real poop on Monday! I poo-pooed! No soft and slushy stuff! LOL That is great news for patients like me!

DAY 15 - pounds!!!!
I went to my GP today. Not only was I instructed by the surgeons office to see my regular doctor, I wanted to weigh myself....
Has this been worth it? As I have complained before, I don't feel like I have lost any weight; I feel like I have GAINED weight. Woe is me. I did this all for nothing...on an on...
I am a little anxious in the waiting room......oh please oh please oh please oh please, call me back there. I want to get WEIGHED! Finally, the "nurse" calls my name and it seems like forever to get to the scale..... I set my purse down (and I wanna strip off my clothes!) and step on the scale. In bright red numbers 330.0 pops up on the LED. I wanted to shit and die! I weighed 346 pounds, an hour before my surgery. I lost 15 POUNDS in two weeks. I was soooooo excited the rest of my appointment. My B.P. is good, my heart rate is good, the boo-boos are healing nicely. The doctor was amazed that I went to my 20th reunion on Saturday. She said she has had patients two-weeks post-op that are still complaining about how sore and tired and weak they are. I'm still a little sore...I still cannot touch my toes. Walking takes its toll. If I use Vicodin, I can tolerate more abuse, in fact I can tell when it has worn off.....I get slower and not so steady.
Funny, the first week I wanted to die, now I wanna LIVE! I'm tired of sitting on my bum...I thought it was a dream come true....an excuse to sit and do NOTHING, and I hated it! LOL I guess I am not as lazy as I thought.

Day 14
Last night was amazing. It was fun to see everybody. Some people didn't change one bit. Others were a pleasant surprise. I am grateful to have been able to go (Thank the Lord for Vicodin. High five for Jesus).
The food was so-so, from what I hear....I didn't eat any of it. Apparently I didn't miss anything.
There were some nice presentations for the dearly departed and our military.Lots of drinking and dancing.I think the fun part was people coming up to me and exclaiming "HI!" People I didn't ordinarily talk to in high school. Hell, I went with Lisa! I barely remember her as a face on campus.
And I got my picture with the hot guys of my class--Jeff Richards, Craig Peterson and Mike Damien.....I can die a happy woman! LOL

Day 13
PARTY LIKE A ROCK STAR!
Tonight is the night....My 20th High School reunion. I am looking forward to it with mixed feelings. I'm excited to see everybody and take pictures, but I am nervous to see everybody, too. Nothing has changed....Same people hang out in the same crowds....We will see if tonight we be a success for me or another disappointment.
Slept for six hours in bed. Got up and took my meds, watched a little TV and then went back to bed. I actually slept on my side for two more hours. That was nice.
I haven't taken any Vicodin today. Trying to see how long I can go without it. I am a little uncomfortable. A little bloated and a little loose bowels. I wonder if that is a side effect of coming off the narcotic. I am going to take some tonight, so I can tolerate the pain at the party. The pain I feel now is what it felt like when I was all doped up. Now the Vicodin actually takes care of the pain considerably.
Hubby is all butt hurt that I am going to the reunion without him. He has been sulking all day. I have been ignoring it. What a baby. It is not the end of the world, my friend. That is going to be another interesting situation tomorrow. How is he going to treat me after the fact?
There is another get together tomorrow in at Heritage Park in Chino...to wean us classmates off the big party. All families are invited. I think the kids will have fun playing. I bet Hubby will still be sulking and not want to take me. Again, we will see........ Success or Disappointment......

DAY 12
I slept in my bed again. WOO HOO. This time for 5 hours.
And I woke up depressed, again. My tummy is hard and sore. I had a microscopic poop yesterday, which offered no relief. I wonder if I should take matters into my own hands. I know I am stopped up because of the Vicodin. Maybe I will get something to help smooth things out.
I was having stinking thinking and thought I didn't want to go to the reunion tomorrow. TOMORROW! I can't believe it is here already. When I first heard about it I wanted to diet/exercise to be one hot momma when I walked in the doors. Instead, I am going to be a crippled old fat woman! LOL. I probably could have postponed the surgery so I could "enjoy" the reunion, but I wanted this more than a couple of drinks. I am not going to be able to overindulge for the rest of my life, I might as well start now. I am sure I can have fun and be a complete idiot without booze.
Anyway, I took some Vicodin and feel a little better. I also did some research on the web and found what I needed to know regarding my bowels and will take care of it. I checked out my class reunion website and got a transfusion of excitement.
Husband is still angry and hurt that I am not taking him to the reunion. Oh well. He didn't go to his own reunion, why on Earth would he want to go to mine? Because I will have fun without him? Prolly. What he doesn't realize is that I have fun every day I am without him. Whether he is at work or just out to the store.....Distance truly makes the heart grow fonder.

Day 11
I got to sleep in my bed last night! WOO HOO!
Well, it was only for a couple of hours, but that is the first time I have slept lying down. I call it progress....
Yesterday, I woke up depressed, because of the stupid pain and I feel as if I have gained weight instead of losing. Having a regular pity party. But I doubled up on my Vicodin and slept my blues away.
Today, I made dinner for my family; chicken empanadas with refried beans and rice. And that was working on my feet WITHOUT meds. I guess I will be in well enough shape to go to the reunion on Saturday. Anyroad, it was interesting to cook without tasting and licking my fingers. I hope they turned out okay. I will have my protein supplement and watermelon juice for dinner.
Oh! I have a post-op follow-up appointment on Monday with my GP. I will be able to weigh myself and see how much weight I have lost, if any.
