DR. RECOMMENDS REVERSAL JUNE 15, 2011

Seen surgeon for 5 min today,  he looked at the two photo's of the ulcer and striture and said we can do two things.  1 operate only or do the reversal which means either way surgery is required.    Two years of vomiting is enough!!  But I so dread it.  I will be 60 yr's old this year.

Two years and down to 122 #.  Trying real hard to not loose anymore.  Have had malnutrition, ulcer and dumping test and a striture.  Looking way too thin, what a change in life.

From 286 to 158,  WOW that is 128 # loss so far.  Everyone tells me  to eat, that I am not looking very good.  I am just now feeling better than I have in the last year.

My Story

March 17, 2009
My story starts when I hit 57 and decided it was time to do something about my weight,  meaning WLS, I have no will power so diets never worked for me.  Since I started the proceedings to achieve the WLS it has been already 6 months,  I just now am getting to the surgery date, which I hope to get tomorrow.
