Walked my first 5k Saturday. I wasn't last. I walked the Blue Shoe walk for prostate cancer in honor of my dad who died from this cancer in 1990! It felt so amazing to do this! Mamie60

I felt like maybe I had done something wrong on the second day in the hospital. And the third day I was home. I've not had one regret since. good luck with everything

Eating is no longer fun
mamie60 replied to weightloss4liss's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Now I eat to live not live to eat. I always thought that that was hokey. But now it is my reality! -
I had afib a few years ago and since I've been using the CPAP with oxygen I have not had any
-
Do you use CPAP with oxygen at night? I am an advanced practice registered nurse and I have done some research into afib. One of the news theories is that afib could be related to untreated sleep apnea you might want to talk to your cardiologist about a sleep study.

11weeks out Sick & Depressed!
mamie60 replied to mrs.papa923's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I don't know where people get the idea that hospitals are clean. Far from it. Just think of all the microbes from all the sick people. Clostridium Difficule (C diff) is a bacteria the effects people with weakened immune systems, post-op patients, cancer patients, older folks and people who don't have normal flora in their bowels because of antibiotics. it is difficult to get rid of and very opportunistic. -
You look wonderful!
-
WOW! You look super! Great work.

My dad passed away in 1990 from prostate cancer. I am doing the 5K blue shoe run for prostate cancer in Denver in his honor! Good luck and great work too.

mamie60 replied to Lthomas's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I am 2 months out and have never vomited or dumped. Just lucky I think. -
Hi Angel on Monday I had my two month anniversary. I am doing really well. I don't have any interest in eating I eat because I know I have to get Protein. It's very different it's now that I eat to live not live to eat. On Saturday I'm walking my first 5K. I walk on average of 6 to 7 miles per day . HW 353 SW 351 CW 295 No regrets or looking back for me! Mamie60

RNY 7/31- Feeling extremely regretful
mamie60 replied to jgarcia323's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Cpower100, PLEASE do not let these posts change your mind!!!! Have a frank talk with your doc about rates of complications. I am an advance practice RN and I know if you get the facts from your doc you should feel confident! I am 2 months out and would NEVER LOOK BACK. NO MORE DIABETES OR HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE! Good luck! -
I'm not eating fast food ever ! That's what got me into this position at least partly and I'm not going there again!

Recovery..... do you really need someone the first few weeks?
mamie60 replied to bluedreams86's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
I'm pretty sure one week would give you enough time to recover while she's there. -

I had gastric bypass laparoscopic and my husband works at home He was available for me but I really didn't need him much. I could've had someone come over once a day I think. Good luck -
