Back from DS!

Hi, all. I just wanted to post that I had the DS on February 22 in California and am doing pretty well. I am down 25 pounds as of this morning, so I am feeling really good about that! At this point, early out from surgery, I think we're all in the same boat--struggling to get enough liquids, protein, etc. The only thing is I haven't had to worry about is dumping, since the DS keeps the pyloric valve intact. I just have to resist my natural inclination to overeat out of habit. THEN I pay the price! Ouch! If I can help anyone with info on the DS, please let me know via a PM, which I am more likely to catch. What a ride! Nicolle  

Hi Nicolle, I just wanted to congratulate you on your surgery! I am glad things went well and you are home and on the Loser's Bench! WooHoo! Blessings Jenn

Thanks! Wow, you are doing great! Keep up the good work! Nicolle
