my surgery before @after
May 06, 2009
I am 28 years old! I am a single mother of 3! I had my Gastric Bypass Rouen Y on April 29th 2009. So yes this is all new to me. I have so many questions and hope I came to the right place. I was at a weight of 322 the day of surgery. I had so many health issues that were controling my life. In Feb of 2008 I had blood clots in both of my lungs and that put me down for some time. I had lots of edema (which is gone since surgery) and I had petikieye all over my feet. Life was so hard for me. I came home from work everyday almost in tears, this isn't normal for a 28 year old. The goals I have for myself are: i want to lose 150 lbs, I want to take my kids to a carnival and be able to ride the rides with them, I want to go to the movies with my kids and not think everyone is watching me NOT fit into the chair, and I want a better life. I know this is coming for me. I had the surgery a week ago and I still have alot of pain but I keep telling myself things will get better!!
