I just realized that it has been some time now since I have gotten sick and had to purge after eating - as you can all remember I was going through it pretty bad the first couple of months sometimes experiencing seeing blood as well. I am so relieved and happy to announce that it has been a couple of weeks and everything seems to have mellowed out now. I am enjoying the weight loss life now and feel more relaxed in my skin with it. Wishing all those just having the surgery the best recovery ever and if there is anything I can do for you just hit me up in a private message. This is definitely worth the challenge it takes to maintain day to day. Love to all!!!

So good to have found that balance I am sure!! Things for me are going well... but when I add 'real food'.... I know things may change!

Glad you are getting along better. It's been a few months since I started this journey. It seems like another lifetime now. I still get sick pretty regularly!

Thanks everybody!!!! I truly thought the madness would never end I think I just learned to keep the texture of everything I eat moist. The texture of some of the foods I was eating was too dry but once I got the trick down it all changed for the better. Sgt hang in there baby, praying for you. I couldn't enjoy this life change until things started smoothing out now I am finally in a happy place with it and loving it. If God did it for me He will do the same for you. Becca I am following your progress both here and on fb honey just take it as slow as you need to, everybodies race is different and you don't need to run it at any ones pace but your own. Another lesson I had to learn.

I appreciate all the love and support you've all given me since day one of this journey and if ever I can do anything for you, holla at ya girl. I'm here for you, Blessings!!!!
