Fabulous February Post-Op's
No I went into a-fib the day after my surgery and I was on Coumadin for blood clots before surgery and had to do a bridge with Levonix shots before and after surgery but I had another problem a week after surgery I had fluid and bleeding in my stomach so had to stop Coumadin & Levonix and my heart beat and rate are not regular beat

Fabulous February Post-Op's
Just thought I would update cardiac visit went ok yesterday dr reduced 1 of my meds to see if it would stop the dizzy light headed felling and said in 6 weeks have to go back to hospital to stop and restart my heart to get a regular heart beat scary but he said after that I should fell really good and a boost of energy I sure hope so. Food is going ok just not hungry who would have thought a string cheese or yogurt would be a meal but no trouble getting my protein in still not 64 oz liquids but getting closer. Hope everyone's doing good OH as of Tuesday I'm down a total of 64 lbs

My story
About 5 years ago I did Medfast and lost about 180 lbs I did good but gained back about 100 you just really have to follow the protocol of a. WLP for life don't stop after you reach your goal and keep up with your blood work with your dr to make sure everything is good And you can do it just don't stop it's a life long journey you may have a fee ups and downs but you can get through it for your health I just had RYN Feb 14

Relationships after--pre surgery anger
I'm going to tell something a man said at our Valentines support he got up and said he couldn't wait till the girl he had meet 20 years ago came out of her shell felling that she didn't deserve him cause of all the weight she had gained over the years he said she was the girl he fell in love with 20 years ago and still loved even thought she didn't feel worthy of his love he said he couldn't wait till she felt better about herself and he could meet that girl again and the could fall back in love all over again this man had everyone in the room in tears because he could get up and say all of this in front of about 75-100 people that he truly loved his wife at whatever weight she was. We need to find someone like him
