WELL I'M TEN MONTHS OUT OF SURGERY, AND I'M 120 POUNDS LIGHTER, AND A WHOLE LOT HAPPIER SINCE I HAD MY SURGERY. I ALMOST DIED HAVING SURGERY, BUT THEN AGAIN, THAT IS A RISK YOU TAKE WITH THIS SURGERY. I HAD COMPLICATIONS AND AN INFECTION, AND WHAT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A LAPROSCOPIC SURGERY TURNED INTO AN OPEN RNY. I WAS OUT OF COMMISION FOR ABOUT THREE MONTHS, AND I HAD TO LET MY OPEN INSCISION HEAL FROM THE INSIDE OUT DUE TO AN INFECTION IN IT.
EVEN THOUGH I HAD MY SURGERY 12/13/05 AND I HAD TO SPEND CHRISTMAS IN THE HOSPITAL ( ONE OF THE WORST THINGS IN THE WORLD!) DUE TO COMPLICATIONS, ALMOST A YEAR LATER, I HAVE MY LIFE BACK, I CAN WEAR NORMAL CLOTHES, I LOVE TO SHOP, AND IM MORE OUTGOING THAN EVER AND I JUST LOVE LIFE.
I SEE OVEWEIGHT PEOPLE THAT REMIND ME OF MYSELF, (THE WAY I USED TO BE) AND I JUST WANT TO RUN UUP TO THEM AND TELL THEM ABOUT WLS, BUT NOT EVERYONE IS OPEN TO DISCUSSION ABOUT IT, I HATE THAT IT TOOK ME SO LONG TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THE WEIGHT THAT WAS STEALING MY HAPPINESS. I WISH I WOULD HAVE DONE IT MUCH SOONER. LIFE IS JUST UNDESCRIBABLE WHEN THE EXCESS WEIGHT IS GONE. I CAN DO SO MUCH MORE AND I AM SO MUCH MORE HAPPIER. IF ANYONE HAS ANY QUESTIONS JUST EMAIL ME, AND I WILL ANSWER ANYTHING.
