Hi-- I am a bit nervous about this... I have never shared like this before. I will start out by saying all of the content within this page is my views & experiences only... If you are reading & have a question -- please ask ** :o) **
I will skip the details of the struggles I had over the past 5-6 years even getting to this point. If you would like to know about those struggles - - I will share... It is a period of time that I wish I could go back & change so I could have had this surgery a long time ago!
It is 5:30am & I am amazed that I am only 10 days out from having surgery. I had a LAP RNY on 5/14/07. When I first walked into Dr Opie's office for the 1st consult a year ago, I weighed 375 & had a BMI of 60.5. My highest weight between last year & this was 380 with a BMI of 61.3. Yesterday, I weighed 330lbs & my BMI was 53.3.
I am on a full liquid diet & will be until 6/2/07 when my other tube is removed. I have been trying to find more info on a full liquid diet as I am pretty tired of the soup & protein shake thing. I am lucky that my Mom & Hubby are home helping me out & keeping me on track.
I have been walking & resting, playing cards & Scrabble with Mom, & hanging out with my Mom, Hubby & pets... So Far So Good!
