Well, it has been 25 days since surgery and I am still feeling run down and blah, but it is getting better. I went in today for my first post-op doctor's visit and they praised me up one side and down the other. I was (and still am) their only patient that has had the Lap RnY performed in under 4 hours!! Guess I am special - lol! Anyway, here is the weight issue - I have lost 25 pounds in 25 days!! If I wasn't so tired I would be very excited!! My scale says 20 pounds lost, so I think I will go with the doctor's scale!! They started me on B12, Calcium and Attagall (to prevent gallstones). Hopefully my energy level will come up soon!! Hugs to all! Hugs Jann

I'm baaaaaaaaaaaack!! I am home and doing okay. I will not lie and say this was a breeze, in fact I am still deciding if I would do it again! Many things happened AFTER I talked with Angela and the pain set in!! All and all I am home and feeling like a huge do-do. I will talk more when my engery level is up. Thanks for all the prayers and well wishes!!! I felt each and every one of them! The phone calls helped too!! Thank you all!! Hugs Jann

Jann had her surgery yesterday. She had a textbook operation. Thank God. She had no complications. She sounds wonderful. Peppy and everything. I told her she sounds better than I was. She was not having any pain. She barely needed her morphine pump. Boy, she is a real trooper. She had already been up walking. She did say that the walking SUCKED..LOL..She is going to do really great with this. She has a great attitude. YOU GO JANN!! Keep her in your prayers and don't forget to send her words from your heart. Thanks!!

Hello Amos Members....I would like for you guys to please be mindful that Jann will be having surgery tomorrow. Please send her nice words of encouragement to uplift her spirits. This is a very emotional time, please be understanding. She probably won't sleep tonight, I would guess she is going to be on her email.lol..So send her all the love your heart can give. Thank You.!!!
