That's great! Good for you! I bet you feel better just knowing you can start trying some new things.

I wasn't planning on making a new fb for this. Just thought making new friends and adding to current fb account. I actually have a private group for Pittsburgh people. We can do messenger if you'd like. Up to you????

    I'm 1 week out as of today. Had gastric bypass on 4/14. Down 11.5 lbs since day of surgery, 21.5 lbs since 4/4. So thankful to finally be losing!!

    I'm 5'7"

    Highest weight: 299

    Preop weight before LS diet: 270

    Surgery day weight 260

    Current weight: 248.5

    Goal weight: 135-140

    Anybody name their pouch? Looking for a good one for mine. Toying with a few names but none are just screaming at me. The ones I'm toying with are Polly Pocket, Penelope Pouch, Penny, or Joey (like the baby kangaroo).

    Congrats to your great loss! That's exciting! I haven't thought of a name for mine yet. I'm waiting to see how it behaves itself! Lol.

    I have 5 days then it's my turn RNY for me!

    Surgery is Monday, very excited and not at all nervous (I work in a hospital and fully trust where I am having surgery and my surgeon). I am mentally prepared and ready...lets do this!!

    @claddagh66- thank you! I feel much better today! The first couple days I felt fine, but when I came home, since I had to walk up steps & whatnot, my pain seemed to skyrocket. But I'm on day 4 post op, and I folded some laundry, made my kids a snack, and sat on my bed while tidying my room- so I am feeling like I'll be normal in no time!
