It's been 2 years now since RNY. I have lost 180lbs. I am feeling great though i have had a few bumps I would still do it all over again. I did have a internal petersens hernia which caused me to have an intuspection and resulted in needing a bowel resection to get ride of some necrotic bowel. It wasn't fun but they said it was because I lost a lot of weight pretty quickly. I do a great deal of walking and now have more focus on working out with weights to build more muscle. I wear a size medium shirt and size 9 jeans my shoe size even dropped an entire shoe size.

So glad you are recovered, I imagine that to be scary. You look fabulous and probably feel even better. Congrats!

You look great

Congratulations. ;-):rolleyes:B):lol:B):P:)

You look amazing! I can't imagine what you went through with the complications & additional surgery, but praise the Lord you're recovered! What an inspiration & testimony :785_cross::1311_thumbsup_tone2::450_trophy::51_scream::) Thank you for sharing!

I actually don't walk as much as I was post-op. Mostly it's been an issue of timing. I currently walk 3 to 4 times a week almost always its an hour at least occasionally less. I think how much is necessary really depends where a person is in their journey to weightloss (either losing or maintaining) I know the most important part is listening to your body cues. More walking during active weight loss is key and I think remaining active after goal weight is achieved is essential as well..

Good Luck
