First Blog entry-Post-Revision!
Dec 22, 2009
Well, revison to stoma and poucheroo was on 12/16 at St. John Oakland.This was far more painful than my original RNY, but not quite as bad as my TT.
I am still feeling like I got hit by a bus, but hoping that after the holidays that will change.
I am losing slowly, down 14 lbs. in 2 weeks, but that is on a totally liquid diet for the entire time. I do understand that weight loss will be a lot slower this time around.
My goal is to get remotely close to my original goal, which was 170. I started out at 317, dropped down to 198 after first RNY. Then I continually gained for over a year, even after my TT. My start weight for revision was 248. I wonder if I will ever get out of the fricking 200's. I can only hope!
So far, on Phase I of liquid diet, and doing ok. Lots of pain in my left side, but at least I lost the drain today!
