11 month surgiversary

Jul 04, 2009

Down 117 lbs. I'm in a size 12 pants and l-xl Juniors tops. I have some skin issues that need to be taen care of when I hit Mega millions, but other than that the weight loss now is very slow, about 2 lbs a month or so. I have been batteling the same four lbs for about 3 weeks. Other health issues not know in related to RNY or not (dr's cant figure it out)  have periphrial neuropathy in both legs, I have bladder leakage from a dropped bladder (cystocele) and I still have hair loss, even when I increase the protein shakes

Isnt it funny how when I first had this done those shakes were "the bomb" loved them, now 11 months later, I gag and can barley get them down. I have found that by adding a vanilla or non flavored one to my morning decaf helps.  

Well almost one year out, so I will po9st again then :)

10 month surgiversary

May 28, 2009

Today is 10 months out and I am down 111 lbs. The last two months have been really slow with the weight loss. I still have neuropathy of my legs, and I am taking extra vitamin B-d as they found I had NONE in my system, even with the daily vitamin regime. Lets hope its OK and I get some feeling back. This has been a long ride, I feel good, I am shopping in regular stores now and cant find a decent pair of underwear out there ..LOL  The last store I bought in was Lane Bryant size 14/16 and that was months ago, I really need some advice if anyone can share what they are using to hide all that extra skin.

Well that's all for this month

Apr 02, 2009

Finally I am down 100 lbs. I am feeling good except I now have neuropathy in both legs. They don't know if its a vitamin deficiency or my spine, so today I had an MRI and EEG and Monday is the blood work. I hope it will be something easy?

I'm down 62 lbs. Only 10 lbs this month. I am actually feeling great. I eat just about everything and tollerate it well. My biggest problem is still getting in all the water. I am always dehyrated. I am making a good effort to try and get it in, but somedays its just so hard.

My hair has been falling out in chunks, so bye bye to the waist long hair and hello to a new shorter cut. Big step for me, but I love it. I am still eating a lot of protein, but I think I will have to start the shakes again:(

I am down 52 lbs. I think thats great seeing I was on a cruise for 19 days this month.

I can basically eat whatever I want, I don't dump and I feel great.

I just went shopping for new jeans and went from a size 26 down to a 18. I still have a lot to go, but I am happy with the weight loss.

Do I still have regrets YES!!!! Would I do it again NO!!!!
