I had my gastric bypass surgery on 8-13-07.  Everything went perfect during my hospital stay.  I was able to walk even more than the required amount and drink all of my liquids.  The only thing that gave me any problem was my potassium.  I have done as Dr. DeWitt suggested and ate 1/2 banana everyday since I have been home.

I have had mostly good days, a couple of terrible days and a few just o.k. days.  To start with, I ate the amount I was told to eat, but never felt full.  Now I feel full but I don't want to eat?  Am I backwards or something?  I simply can't wait to eat something besides liquid or mushy food.  That has truly been the hardest part for me.

Physically, everything has went much better than expected.  Mentally, there are days I ask WHY and other's that I know why!  Each day is hopefully going to get a little better.  Only time will tell.
