I don't know about you but my feet, ankles and legs swell so bad. I wonder if any of you have this problem and if after the surgery the swelling went down?

Surgery date 4/18/13 @ 7:30 am

So, did any one elses surgeon try to get them to change from RNY to the sleeve? My doctor seemed quite persistent, though said the choice was mine, and it didn't seem to bother him that I choose the RNY. He kept going on about doing a fabulous single incesion through the belly button, but seriously, I have a road-map on my stomach from 3 pregnancies, so regardless of how much weight I lose, I will never be showing my bare stomach in public. I am wondering if maybe he just wanted more practice doing the single incesion, lol.

No...in fact he recommended against the sleeve for me and suggested RNY

Not having issues with the taste of fluids. Water tastes pretty darn good for the moment. But you never know things can change.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
