June 2019!!! Surgery Siblings!!!

  • Popular Post

So I didnt see a June thread and wanted to make one so we could all stay accountable and have a lot of good and bad experiences together!!! Introducing myself: My name is Kassandra, I am 27 years young, I have 3 great kids (9 yr old & 5yr old little boys & a 2 year old little girl), a wonderful hubby, and 3 great cats. I'm a type 2 diabetic & have sleep apnea. I decided to do this to take my life back because I do NOT want my kids to lose me so young. I'm 5 ft 2 and 258 lbs. I was 293 last summer then I started to make small changes to get ready for surgery. I had planned for the sleeve but my insurance won't cover it right now so RNY it is!!!

Sorry for this weird post- these quote boxes were somehow stuck in my reply and I couldn't get them removed, no matter what I did? Please ignore! I will post below.

Okay, NOW I can post. LOL!

Just an update to say I am out of surgery and doing well. Had RNY yesterday. Pain is not too bad and I am drinking water ok. May even get to go home today! :) Will update when I can.

Wishing good things for each of you! Thanks for being such a supportive group!

Thanks, I sure will. Found out I rather like losing weight, used to kill my home scales because they were so mean to me, never seemed to recognise my efforts and give,me credit for my attempts. Once marched out to the metal dumpster, threw it at the back wall just to hear it crunch and fall apart. Mean luttlecritter, aren't I?

I'm totally jealous lol. I get shakes for every meal and sugar free jello or pudding and popsicles for snacks. Broth too.
