10 weeks
May 05, 2009
Well today it has been 10 weeks since my Duodenal Switch surgery. I uploaded a new pic (saggy pants and all.. LOL). I really can not believe what a change has happened to me this year with all the weight loss. 2009 is going to be the best year of my life. So I was looking through my photos while I was sitting here at work and started to get all choked up. I can not believe the changes. Little things amaze me, like feeling a muscle in my arm (WTF.. where did that come from). I am so happy with the way things fell into place for me. Back in 2005 when I attended my seminar for WLS and was told I had an exclusion I was CRUSHED. I mean, how can they do that. I know now that it happened because I was meant to have the Duodenal Switch and I would not have known about it back then. Hell I did not even know about OH back then. I thought I would go in have my surgery and then be skinny (in my head that was how the gastric bypass worked).I now have a great support group I attend, walk the Green way on a regular basis (if anyone needs a walking partner, just let me know). I know i am rambling but I am just so amazed that this is actually working for me.
Well.. I guess that is enough for now.... 127 pounds down and loving my DS.
