  2. I would do it again without hesitation . I so wish I did it long ago. Surgery was march 25 th started at 258.0 ....pre - op diet lost 10lbs. To 248.0..... Now 213.0 ..... Down 45 lbs! Just can't wait to be under 200. It will come. Not to bad for 9 weeks out. I feel great , of course I have good days and bad days but I also have many great days to. No regrets what so ever !
  3. Good luck . A new and healthier you starts tomorrow!
  4. I wanted to say .... I'd tell them to make damn sure it's gas . Especially with vomiting. To do this before I leave.
  5. And this is gas??? I'd tell them toile dn sure. Especially with vomiting.

  7. Im almost 2 months out on the 25 th I don't regret having it done at all. I still have eating issues but I don't regret it. Go to the mall buy a size smaller shirt that you love the time goes by fast and before you know it you'll be wearing it. Try it it will make you feel sooooo good!

  9. That's the key don't over cook them! Like they say everyone is different. It worked for me just chew and take it slow.
  10. Oh crap you mean I expanded this thing with one piece of bread! That was on the list!
  11. Since we are speaking of pain.... I'm having pain since yesterday after supper, in my upper left quadrant. Called drs. Nurse and said since I had a bread for the first time yesterday at supper, she feels it got "hung up" in the pouch. Said it probably wasn't ready for it. Told me to do liquids for 2 days. It's really sore there I sure hope she's right. Also said it will go down or come up. I don't feel sick to my stomach at all . I had rny on march 25. Anyone experience this?
  12. Ok ladies I have not heard of these........ how about telling me more about them and how do you get them? What r they?

  15. What is like to know is?........ Does it take older people like myself longer to lose the weight as opposed to people not in their fifties? I will ask my dr. When I see him but if you know do tell please.

  18. I was told by dr. That the stomach is still viable with artery and veins. To me it meant its still alive just not holding food.
