one month out
May 31, 2007
hi all well im one month out and 40 lbs gone,gone forever. i
have not had many problems as of yet only had a bit of throwing up
for a few days think i got something stuck and it wouldnt let nothing else go down. but now that is resolved. thank god. i still have a good
bit of energy and went for a bike ride with my daughter. havent done that in a long time. went and had labs done and ae waiting for the results see the doc on monday 4 june. all good i hope. i only have
one problem with the meds. the potissium pills suck. you have to disolve them in water or liquid and what a horrible taste. but with that said and all done i would still do this all over again.

hi all im on the other side now had surgery wednesday april 25th came home saturday. went shopping today. i fell great. a little pain but nothing i cant handle. i have been able to keep every thing i eat so far down but let me tell you ground beef is no joke it just lays in your stomach like a rock and you feel terrible. no more red meat for a while.
one thing i notice is i do have a lot of energy, even with the pain, i hope that stays like that. im still swellon some and bruised like crazy.
but i am very happy i did it. now just waiting to get exercising so i can see this weight fall off. my daughter ask me if i was skinny yet. i had to laugh and boy does that hurt. shes only 4. well i better get some water in i find that to be hard to get all the ounces they want us to get in. but im trying. . karen 43

my journey
Feb 17, 2007
greetings all i have begun my journey to healthier life. i am currently 300 lbs and i feel so bad. im always tired and i have diebeties, ashma, and high clor. ive been on every diet that is out there and nothing worked. i then began looking into wls and decided this is my ticket to a better and healthier life. i have tricare insurance and they now cover the open r-n-y . so im going to have the surgery at memorial hospital in savannah ga. i have to attend two support group meetings
get blood work done,. have a meeting, neuition class, phcsy. eval, and
im not sure what else before i can get a date. but i hope it dont take too long.
