Hello everyone what a ride it has been.

I spent a year researching bariatric surgery before choosing RNY BYPASS.

my highest weight was 322lbs and I was very unhealthy and probably heading for an early grave.

With a BMI of 43.7

now today after 7.5 months I've managed to hit 170LBS.

that's a total loss of 152lbs in 7.5 months and I think I'm done and in maintenance mode.

I've started adding more variety and carbs into my diet but still being mindful of my Weight.

I'm just so grateful for the bypass it has completely and literally changed my metabolism for the better.

Lately I have indulged here and there on a few squares of chocolate or a Mars Bar or even a cup of icecream without it affecting my weight at all.

it's like I'm a new Man.

thank you all for your ongoing support.

MIKEY

I can't believe how much weight you've lost in such a short time. Congrats! But that's a man for you...they can cut out one gram of carbs a day and lose 50 pounds in three days....😉

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      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!!
