Hi Hydee! I loved watching this video. I also started way above 400lbs, I haven't had surgery yet.. but I'm totally with you with the 'little things' (: So proud of you and I'm looking forward to more videos. I try to post them, but have trouble finding things to say!

@hellob0x Thats great! I didn't have to do a liquid diet before surgery... thank heavens. lol. Good luck with your surgery. :)

hello Heidi! Welcome to the loser's bench... the weight loss journey is a lifetime trip.. but definitely worth it. Good luck! Oh..and welcome to the community!

@hydamyster Yeah, it can seem odd. But, I love that you threw in the small obstacles that you've overcome. Like driving, walking, doing tasks.. because that's what we all go through and it's those little experiences that drive us to want more and more. My weightless is going well. My surgery is in 10 days, I'm on liquid pre-op diet and I've been dieting for a few months now, I've lost 60 pounds so far and I'm hoping to lose another 10 before surgery! (:

Hi Hydee! What kind of vitamins are you taking? What brand? Chewables? Can you tolerate swallowables? What protein drinks have you tried besides the EAS? I might be able to offer some suggestions if you tell me what you have tried so far.

[@hydamyster]

@ShrinkingSusieQ I was taking the walmart brand of flinstones complete chewable... and i really don't like the taste. im kind of stuck on those. as far as protein i have tried numerous powder shakes and the muscle milk light and i just cant stomach them.

@CrystalRNYGreatness Sorry it took so long but how is the process going with your surgery? Monday Dec 5th will be 12 weeks post-op for me... its getting better... its alot of "testing the waters" when it comes to what foods i can tolerate.

[@hydamyster]

@hellob0x I said that in my second video i just posted about not knowing what to say and feeling weird about talking to the camera... so how is your weightloss going?

@MissJanieHere Thanks!
