Almost 3 months!!!
on July 15, 2011 9:18 am
 Hi everyone!  I am almost 3 months from surgery and feeling amazing!  I am down almost 50lbs.  I heard about this happening and it has to me, I LOVE to shop now!!!!  I know I shouldn't buy to much but it's hard not to!!!!  It's so fun!  I have been to goodwill and consignment shops as well and gotten some things there but.... Just not the same! I have also started the Couch 2 5k program and love it! I think running is the best overall work out there is.  I am really worried about lose skin and want to do everything possible to prevent that.  I can already see some and it's bugging me.  Anyone have any other ideas?  Hope everyone is doing well!!!!!

Hi everyone.  Sorry it has taken me so long to post something.  I had my surgery RNY, April 21.  I came home the next day, and was so happy about it.  I could finally sleep!!! I didnt have alot of pain, except in my back, so I walked alot in the hopsital, every 2hrs or so, all though the night.  It just felt better to walk then lay down.  I was hoping Doc would do single incision on me be he wasn't able to because of some scare tissue from having my gallbladder out.  So I have the 5 small incisions that are healing well.  I am doing well on liquids, my Doc keeps us on them for 3 weeks.  I am not feeling hungry, just feel like i wanna chew something.  I have tried gum, but being able to have popsicles is a saving grace for me.  I haven't weighted yet, waiting for my one week which is tomorrow!  I'll check back in tomorrow after I weight!!
