Surgeon Testimonial

Bruce Long, M.D.
Ok, I met Dr Long a week before my surgery. He endured my list of presurg questions. I had been warned about dry humor but not too bad. Main thing was he has done a lot of these surgeries and he do a good job on me! Only 1 week post op and would recommend him to other patients.

Down 2.6 pounds this week
89.2 since surgery
97.2 since highest weight
current weight 166

Exercised twice this past week. Had a couple of days I ate more than I have been use to. That scared me. I was hungry this week but I think it was a week that "makes you hungry". Hair still coming out. I think its decreased but I think its because I am almost bald now anyway.

Thanks for everyones support. I want PLASTICS !!!

Since highest wt  -94.6 lbs

Yahoo! I have been eating like crazy this past week. Its Monday or "start to do better day" for me. Since I went on vacation, I haven't logged any foods. I am going to get on track today. I need to start moving around more again. I did push mow my lawn and walk some at the beach but not my usual 3 days of cardio. I am back at work and it is hard but I am here!!

Everyone is doing so great. I am so glad to be able to come on to OH and give and receive support. Its awesome. I think of my OH as my facebook

Hello, Well in the last 10 days I lost 1.2 pounds - now in 160s! I think thats pretty good considering I have been at the beach and tried to eat horribly. I say tried because everytime I put something bad in my mouth it made me sick. One night we ordered papa johns pizza and the first 3-4 bites were delicious but then the dumping set in. I got weak, nauseated, and could feel my heart pounding. I did good most days, trying to do protein first and veggies. We stopped at an ice cream parlor and I got the no sugar added butter pecan but I could only take a few licks before it made me nauseated. I'm not sure if that was carbs or sugar alcohols. I don't understand the entire sugar alcohol thing. As much as I missed inhaling food at the beach, I am very grateful for my RNY and how it has helped me control my eating even during my moments of weakness. Hope to lose more next week.

I lost 2.6 pounds. Again, I think its mostly hair. I want to say the hair loss has slowed down but I may be lying to myself. Anyway, still eating about the same foods. I got the three days of cardio in. I still have to force it most days and sometimes I do enjoy it now.

this week -2.6
since surg -84.2
Since highest wt -92.2

I can't believe it. I want to lose at least 31 more pounds. I think I can get there but the goal I need is keeping it off!!!

Thanks,
Robin
