So good to hear from you April!  YIPEE for 33lbs!!  That is stellar.  I hope I am able to loose as nicely.  I am also hoping to have a nice smooth recovery as you did.

How long did you take off of work??  If you had to, do you think you could go back at this point....I am taking 4 weeks off, and I am hoping that it will be long enough.

My surgery is in the AM....yep about 18 hours from now!!!

Thanks for the update....happy losing!

Thanks! Today I had the unfortunate experience of vomiting for the first time since surgery. Not a good feeling, but totally different than vomiting before surgery.

I am 4 weeks out and I have lost 33 lbs! That is pretty exciting! I am down 2 sizes in pants also. I have had zero problems so far. I am loving my RNY :)  Just wanted to share.

Wowzers! 157, and the excess is gone f.o.r.e.v.e.r. I'd say put on your stilettos and go ahead and act like a supermodel. Show it off---need to make up for lost time!

I jumped on the scale a couple of

weeks ago and realized I was down to

157 lbs. 



I never imagined I would be this size.

I am a comfy size 8 now, down from a

tight 26-28.



I have lost 175+ pounds.



I was channel surfing and saw a clip of

the old episode where Tyra proudly

announced she was 161 pounds. 



I weigh less than Tyra now. WoW, Just

WoW.



No, I'm not claiming to be supermodel

cute like her, but it sure does feel

good to be normal for once in my life.



                            

I really do weigh less than Tyra. Pinching myself for the

zillionth time. Hee Hee Hee...



Now, if I could just get as much money as her. Hmm???
