tomorrow is MY day for surgery!!
Yes, I first had the RNY almost 3 years ago, 6/8/05. I did well until the beginning of my 3rd year. I regained about 90 pounds because I was grazing and eating a lot between meals, then eating more at mealtime, eating and drinking at the same time and not exercising much. I became depressed in December and am on medication. I tried the nutritional route for 2 months. That didn't cut it for me. So I went to see Dr. Guske and he recommended a lapband. I asked about having a revision to my RNY and he said he didn't see much success with it. So I decided to go with it.
I'm a week out and have a lot to learn. The most painful area is where he put the port in. It's so sore and swollen. I'm seeing him in a few hours for my first post-op appointment. I won't be getting a fill until the middle of June. I can't wait!
I like your "chunkalicious"!!
Hugs,
Lucy
