You will feel so much better. I sure don't miss being in so much pain and not being able to breath. Good luck.

My husband starts his new life today. He is in recovery. He had RNY. I'm so excited for him. He also had a hiatal hernia repair. Today I'm 14 Wls post op. Down 60lbs. I hope his journey is a great as mine..

Good luck to him. I'm sure he will do great with u there to show him the ropes :)

Getting my gallbladder removed Friday. I have not had pain the last two weeks. Kinda makes me second guess getting it out now???

DONT second guess it! Just have it removed. I went round and round with my former pcp about mine. Had everything from colonoscopy to hida scan. Finally when I said "please do another scan cuz I know its the gallbladder" after a huge, embarrassing attack in the cafeteria at work, did he agree. It was functioning at 7% and came out that week! My son also just had his out and it was very infected. It is such an easy surgery and you will feel so much better!

I had mine taken out 10 years ago. It was "sluggish" and they thought it was the root of all my acid reflex problems... Not sure what it would have been like for me now. It's not that bad what I can remember. You gone thru RNY. This should be a breeze.

Loving good will these days! It takes forever to scan the racks but it is usually a payoff when I find several sizes to try on and some of them fit!

A good note I will have some to donate to goodwill. Some of my stuff had to go...of course!! I had a former coworker bring some clothes I'm just dying to get into.

I scored a Lee brand pair with the 29.99 tags still on for 3.99! The other pair was a name brand too for 1.99. You cant beat that when hopefully I'll only be in them a very short time! ;)
