I had RNY Gastric Bypass on 7/20/10. Had my post op appt w/my surgeon on 7/29/10 & I'm down 15 lbs since surgery! I'm also off the liquid diet & have transitioned to soft foods (I never thought 1 measly scrambled egg could taste so wonderful!). I'm still keeping a food journal & measuring everything I eat. I've learned the importance of listening to my body's signals as to when I'm hungry & especially when I get full. Anytime I get that full feeling, I know I have to stop eating & let the food pass. This is the best gift I could have ever given myself. Most of my friends are supportive of my efforts but I've spoken w/others who are just against surgical intervention to lose weight (ironically most who are against it could stand to lose weight themselves; yeah, I see how doing it "naturally" is working for ya!!). IGNORE the IGNORANT who can't (and WON'T) understand; this isn't a "vanity" type surgery (butt lift, tummy tuck, etc); this is for my health, and no one else has to live in this body but me. I'm on my way.
