September 24, 2009 179.4 pounds



I asked Al to take these two pictures tonight so you could have a reference point. It has now been 17 days since my surgery. I feel really good, I get tired some but I'm not eating as much as I used to so that makes since. The Nurse Practitioner said that I would be energized in about a month. I am slowly graduating to different foods which will make it easier to get all of my nutrients and proteins in. I am walking on the treadmill about 6 out of 7 days a week and I am adding 2 minutes to my walk each day. I am not hungry and do not feel deprived of any food. I did start getting a little burning at the bottom of my throat Tuesday and I think it may be a little reflux. I have been taking gasx thin strips for it and today I spoke with the nurse and she told me to take some prilosic. She said if that didn't help in a couple of days to come in. They are so nice !!
This would not be a bad weight if I was about 10-12 inches taller. God knew my height when he made me though and I praise him for putting this surgery in my life!
