Happy New Years

Well the big day came and went. I slept through the New Year ball drop. The past two days have been miserable. I've been so hungry - but yet gassy after I eat or drink. Good thing I go to the Dr's tomorrow. I am hoping for another swallow study, and a desperate fill. I was told that after each fill I go back to soft proteins for 24 - 36 hours. But that is okay, I can handle it. My weight is hovering 200-197 right now. But once I get an adjustment I should be okay and it should start to slowly melt away again. I am so proud of myself. I think the past 11 days I've only had 6 or 7 cookies. Wow, I never would of thought that was possible to have that small amount. I've had 5 different Christmas' with family and 2 Christmas parties and I didn't sweat the small stuff. I ate little amounts and it didn't bother me, I thought it was funny when we went to a Christmas party at the Hitchin Post. I sat with 11 other people, and my plate was so naked compared to theirs. They had food piled high and made 3 or 4 trips each to the buffet, I had 3 wings and a half slice of pizza. I also had 2 glasses of water - most of them had beer or mixed drinks or soda. This is a huge accomplishment for me. I am so proud of myself and thank Kenny a bunch for all his support through this.
