2 years post-op update before & after pics



Recommended Posts

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!

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

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
