Five Month's Since My RNY(Sept. 28, 2009)

Sep 27, 2009

     It's been 5 mo. since I had my RNY. I've lost 114 lbs. and I feel like a new man. I told my 83 yr. old Aunt that I lost her. She weighs about 100 lbs. soaking wet! I can not believe how much energy I've gained back and how much better I feel.
     During my journey I have developed a small ulcer and have been in treatment for the last 5 weeks. My Doctor said that the ulcer has caused some of my dumping. He put me on Carafate, this medicine coats the ulcer and promotes it to heal internally. I've had 2 EGD's within the last 5 weeks, the latest last Thursday. I d'ont have the results yet. I hope the ulcer is healing!
     My friends and people I've not seen recently tell me how much I've changed. My posture is straighter, that load I was carrying on my back and belly is slowly disapearing. I will tell you that my Golf Swing is totally out of sink and I'm having to learn a totally new swing. I'm not swinging around my old body and the swing is falling into the normal slot. This has caused my timing, balance, and distance to change. These changes will make my golf swing better. Stamina, strength, fitness, and attitude will make my game improve .
     I have cleaned my closet out and it looks empty. I'll have to go shopping soon. Shorts and T-Shirts will not cut it this winter.
     I'll close for now and God Bless each and every one!
