revision 12/13/11 (lapband removed, bypass done)
Had my lapband taken out and a bypass performed on 12/13/11. So far, so good. Down a total of 50 lbs., including the 10 I lost during the 2 wk. pre-op Atkins-like prep. No real problems to speak of post-operatively. Went back to work in about 2 weeks. Can't eat more than the size of my hand at a time, but it's suppose to be like that...if I drink water too fast, I get a little 'slow down' reminder in my chest. Usually not hungry (big change for me), but learning how to eat to live instead of living to eat. I'm now eating whatever my family's eating, but in a much smaller amount. Went thru food grief on and off during the first two weeks, but over that now. Started beginner yoga to get re-aquainted with my body, and that is really working for me! Taking my vitamins religiously, labs have been all good. Anyone else with this type of revision done around the same time so I can compare notes?
