So now Erica is down 121 pounds. The weight is coming off more slowly, obviously, but at least it's coming off. We've heard a lot of stories about people having gastric bypass surgery and then gaining all the lost weight back, and she's determined that that will not happen to her.
I think the scope procedure that she had done a few weeks ago had a lot to do with the slower weight loss, as she is able to keep food down now and does not have the issues she used to.
She is also doing really well about knowing when she's full and pushing the plate away when she is. And guess what? She's drinking coffee again! She started small but is now up to a little more than half a cup. She just loves it, and it's great to have the aroma of coffee in the house in the morning.
We will be leaving tomorrow for Honolulu. This is the first time that Erica has been on a plane since her surgery and, although we are taking the seat belt extension with us, we are thinking that we won't need it. I'll let you know.
