I'm doing fine.

I was reminded today that it has been a while since I've updated. I've finally gotten over my nausea/vomiting. Turns out I had a stricture. But once we got that fixed I was fine. I'm tolerating regular foods just fine. I've had a couple of dumping episodes but I tolerate most foods that I've tried. I've been at a stall for about 3 weeks now. I know it happens, but it's really starting to irritate me now. Hopefully, I'll start losing agin soon. I haven't yet made it to the point where I'm glad I did this to myself. In fact, I wish I hadn't. But I can't do anything about it now so I'll just have to make the best of it.
OMG. Who knew it would be like this?

I'm 4 weeks out and down 35 pounds. But for the past 10 days I have been having this horrible nausea/vomiting that just doesn't seem to want to go away. It acts like it's going to get better and then it just gets worse again. I had to go to the ER the other day because I couldn't even hold down water. They couldn't find anything wrong with me except for dehydration. So they gave me some IV fluids and Phenergan and sent me home. And NO I am NOT pregnant. I just wish this little phase would go away so that I can live my life. I read all these stories about people being able to do all these things since there surgery. I have spent soooooooooooo much time in my house and in my bed because I just don't have the energy to do anything else. I was more active before the surgery. And I'm really beginning to wish I had never done this to myself.
