Susan,I'm 3 weeks post-op down 32lbs.,I am now starting to feel like myself again. I had a stomach tumor removed during my RNY so that complicated things for me.I would do it again though.Had I not had the WLS, I would not have known about the tumor, it showed up in my pre-op tests, otherwise it would had grown bigger. You will be fine just remember to follow your DR.s orders and also your dietician.I'll be praying for a safe trip for you to the other side. Suzy
