Hi Marilyn, Just saw your post and sorry to hear that you had a rough beginning following your surgery. Sounds like now you are on the mend. What a great positive attitude you have, truly an inspiration to a pre-op like me! I wish you continued success with your journey. I pray that you will have no more complications. Also, sending my prayers for your cousin to have an uneventful surgery and speedy recovery. Take care and God Bless You!~~~Lisa

Hi everyone finally feel up to writing I had a long recovery developed a bile leak andwas hospitalized for 14 days , came home for aweek and back in developed dehydration and pnemonia hopefully I am on my way to a healthy future. I have lost 25 lbs so far so that's a start Was able to atend my nieces wedding this past Saturday my main goal I even was able too stand up and dance a few steps with her so that made my day. Having a hard time getting the protein in me I always feel so full,so now I am eating bean and pea soups because they have some protein and adding protein powder not to bad . Good luck to anyone having the surguery, My cousin is having it done on the 24 I wish her the best she is having the lap one though where I had the oen.
