I LOVE my RNY

Feb 08, 2009

Hey all!
Haven't posted in a long while so, here's an update.
I've lost 60lbs!! I was at Walmart Friday night and ran into someone that I have known for 10 years. He didn't recognize me!! When I told him who I was, he couldn't believe it!! That's so exciting!
I had to cut my hair short because of it falling out. It looks cute but, I miss my long locks.
I have gone from a 26/28 in pants to an extra large. I have gone from a 4x in tops to a large. I can run, not walk, RUN up a flight of stairs and not get winded. I have more energy than I know what to do with. This is truly, the best thing I have ever done.
Hope everyone is doing well!!

Life is GREAT!!!

Dec 17, 2008

I can’t believe how wonderful it feels to be losing weight. I’ve lost 39 lbs!! I have gone from a 26/28 to size 20 jeans that are too big and 1x in tops! I can walk up two flights of stairs without getting winded. I FEEL better! I have so much energy, mental and physical. Each morning, I wake up excited about the new day! It only gets better. This was soooooo worth it! I’d do it all over again, but sooner.

Down 32 lbs!

Dec 06, 2008

I'll be 7 weeks out Monday and I'm down 32 lbs. SOOOOOOO exciting! I think I am not eating enough. I do good to eat once or twice a day. So, I bought some Atkins shakes and if I am not going to eat, I need to drink a second shake.
Hubby is home and I"m so glad. He bought be a beautiful purse for an anniversary present and I'm so tickled. I just love it.

5 weeks post-op

Nov 23, 2008

I will be 5 weeks out tomorrow. I have done pretty well actually. I"ve lost 22 lbs. 85 to go! I never get hungry and I'm loving it. I love that food is not an issue. I never realized how much I would focus on food. It's such a relief not to have to worry about it. I get my protien in and drink my liquids and everything else is just gravy.

Abrasions?

Oct 13, 2008

Well, I had an EGD today and dr found abrasions on my stomach. I have no idea what this means. They have me on a Prevpac and say that will take care of the problem. I hope so.

Lost my job

Oct 07, 2008

I lost my job Friday. I hate that I did but, I did. I have insurance through the end of the month so, I will be having Surgery in less than two weeks. I'm sooooooo happy that I am able to have it done but, also a little nervous.
October 20th.

My Monday

Sep 29, 2008

My surgery is six week from today!!!  I’m excited and a little nervous. I have to quit smoking. I don’t want to but, I will. I know how smoking affects your ability to heal so, I will do it. I want to do well with this surgery. I am going to paint my living room today. I have never painted a damn thing in my life so I pray that I don’t screw it up. I would also like to add that my NUT and surgeon put me on a low-fat diet and thank you very much, I have gained a pound. SHIT!!!
