I am six weeks out of surgery and doing well.  Since surgery I have lost 46 lbs.  I am happy with my shrinking body and enjoying the many compliments I received from family and co-workers.

The hardest thing for me right now is getting in enough fluids.....I try to sip and sip, but it seems I just don't get enough.  I will keep trying though.

I had one little scare with a pain in my left side.  It turned out to be nothing, but I like to be safe and not sorry.   

I am looking forward to one day being in onederland, but I am still about 75 lbs away, but it will happen.

My surgery date is March 13th.  I am anxious and nervous, but also excited.

I go for preop on the 6th, and start my liquid diet.

Prayers are welcome.

Hi, my name is Susan and I live in Florida.  I have been battling weight most of my adult life.  As a child and teen I was average built, but in my early 20's the weight started piling on.    I discovered when I was 31 that I had hypothryoidism.  At that time I weighed around 220 lbs.  I am now 48 and weigh around 330 lbs.  I've done many other diet programs, and while I can lose some weight I've never been able to keep it off or maintain.  I have sleep apnea, Type II diabetes, and I am mostly miserable in my body.  I am hoping weight loss will give me back my energy and my zest for life.
