I have been over weight all my life. I lost my mother this year and decided I want to live a better life and a fuller life. I started looking into gastric by pass surgery.
Sept. 21, 2006I had my surgery laparoscopic and only had to stay 3 days in the hospital. No problems.
November 13, 2006I’ve lost 44 pounds. (54 days out) I feel great, my husband and I started going to the gym. There’s been a few times that I got a little sick, mostly from not eating slow enough. I’m still having problems getting in the liquids.
December 11,2006 I've lost 61 pounds (almost 3 months), I'm having a little problem eating meats, but other than that I am doing well. I started mixing a little orange juice in my water and I am having better luck at getting in more fluids. We're going toTexas for Christmas, so I guess this will be the big test for how well I do eating.
January 2007 - I am feeling so much better, I am down 73 pounds now, and it is so sweet to be able to shop for cloths anywhere. I am sure these are things that are said often. I just wish I wasn't so afraid to have this done so many years earlier.
