3 months POST-OP

Dec 28, 2011


Hiiiii
so sorry I have not been on for a while. What a BAD blogger I am.

well, happy to report im 3 months post-op and 88lbs down. Feeling good...finally.
I had LOTS of complications to surgery. Bariatric surgery itself went fine, smooth...however 2 days after surgery, I had a bowel obstruction and had to have another surgery to correct my bowel. There was a suture placed that kinked the bowel, and made me vomit and have nausea...always.

Then I did fine for about two weeks, and then apparantly my body was going through hormonal changes due to the surgery and I was always nauseated and vomitted several times a day. SUPER smell sensitive. I hardly ate, due to the fact either I couldnt stand the smell or, I couldnt hold the food down.

I was in the hospital over Thanksgiving due to a complication of an Endoscopy they performed.

BUTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT after all of that, happy to report, for a month now im doing better. Eatting reg. diet. happy, back to my old self...smaller older self.

I am however a tad vitamin deficit...so im itching all the time, but im hoping to UP my calcium intake and make sure I take a multivitamin daily to help absorb it in my system and make the itching stop.

If you ask me, if i would do it all over again, I would!!! I really would, although I wouldnt wish nausea and vomiting upon anyone, in the end, I made it through. Losing weight and regaining a healthier, happier life. :)
