5 months out

Jul 26, 2009

 I am now 5 months out from surgery and things are just great I have lost a total of 132 total pounds from my heaviest and about 57 since surgery. I think I might be a little slow losing but I feel great !!!! I could not be more pleased,, I can do things I haven't been able to in many years I feel younger and much more energetic. I no longer take diabetes meds and my cholesteral is perfect. I can eat just about anything without any problems. I am still struggling with the drinking after a meal, I am constantly watching the clock until I can drink again, other than that I wish I had done this years ago. I wish I could make it to more meetings but my work schedule does not allow. We have a little group out here in the sticks and we meet every two weeks and it has been great. This surgery is by far the best thing I have ever done for myself and worth any discomfort or eating struggles I have had to endure since surgery. I have been really lucky as I have not yet had any side effects from this surgery, I will knock on wood now and have had no trouble following the recomended plan from my surgeon. 
If you are considering this surgery, I say go for it, I feel it has saved my life and made me a much healthier happier person.
Thank you for taking the time to read this.............................................
