 TX Duodenal Switch (03/13/08) Member Since: 07/07/02[Latest Posts] | Post Date: 2/5/12 10:34 pm Hey everyone...just wanted to let ya'll know I did go through w/my FDL TT this past Friday and all is well. I have done nothing but sleep (and scratch - I'm sooo ITCHY) since then but pain is nicely managed so I'm okay. I am super swollen which is a bit disappointing but after all these years of research, i should know by now it's part of the process. Still so much to do to get where I want to be but each step takes me just a lil bit closer. . .I'll be copying this post to PS             |

 Member Since: 03/13/09 [Latest Posts] | Post Date: 2/6/12 5:24 am Wow, what a huge difference, but even with the swelling you can really see an amazing improvement. Just wait, it's only going to get better!  HW (pre RNY) 430 / HW (pre DS) 302 / SW 288 / Lowest weight 157 / CW 161 / GW 150 "I'm just one stomach flu away from my goal weight" |

 Member Since: 09/16/09 [Latest Posts] | Post Date: 2/6/12 4:37 pm Last Edit: 2/6/12 4:38 am I think you look great.....but.......did you ever take into consideration that OH is now pimping out our posts on facebook. You might want to consider removing the pics with your face on it just in case they do. Not trying to be mean, but I know I would never want these kind of pictures of me plastered on their facebook page. Name or no name on it, it would be public. |

TX Duodenal Switch (03/13/08) Member Since: 07/07/02[Latest Posts] | Post Date: 2/11/12 12:20 am Thanks for responding with the encouragement everyone! It's been a looooong road and I still have a long way to go. I know I don't come by often but I do come by still and hopefully someone will find the info/pics useful as I have over the decade. As far as the healing, I have to remind myself that this is only a week out and to stop pushing for 'now'...It's just that I know that there are going to be wow! moments that I can't wait to get to! Ya'll take care and I'll keep ya posted. Thanks for being here! |

I think you will be very happy when your body settles down and the swelling goes away. I would love to see some photos in another month or two and see how beautifully you've healed! Looking good!! |
