Oops. I've lost 41 pounds since surgery which was 3 months ago.

Since surgery I have lost 46 lbs. the first few days after surgery I was uncomfortable mainly from the incision because I had an open procedure. I went back to work after 2 weeks to the day. I've never had a problem to this day but I spent a year doing my research and followed my doctors orders to the T. It has been the best decision I've ever made.

I had my surgery on 4-11-12 and it was the best decision of my life. I had the open gastric bypass and was back at work on day 14.

Is the waiting killing you. I know the month before my surgery was the longest.

Newbie here from Philadelphia, Pa. Had my surgery on April 11th and couldn't be happier.
