Hey Everyone! I am 2 1/2 weeks post-op and I can't believe how great I feel, except for when I eat I can't tell I had surgery! I am having to work on eating SLOW and what I can/cannot tolerate. I don't get sick if I eat something,I get a terrible pain for about 5 minutes(which seems like 5 hours) It usually hurts so bad it kills my appetite. I have had a impressive example of dumping syndrome---it is a awful feeling! Yuk! Those are really the only negatives so far.I feel so much better than pre-op, I have lost 15 lbs and that has already made me feel better. I start Monday with a personal trainer-3 days per week, I hope it helps my energy level, I feel great in the mornings and by lunch time I am exhausted. I am already so glad I had WLS, and I am so thankful for this web site...it has been my support system!! Thanks for all of the kind letters, they really help! Tami

My prayers are with you, and hoping for a speedy, painfree recovery. Keep your focus on healing. Make sure you walk, and keep up your breathing exercise. YOU CAN DO THIS! Welcome to the other side.

Post-Op x 1 week; Guys I can't believe how great I feel, no nausea or vomiting; no problems @ all:) I am having full liquids, oatmeal,yogurt and soft pasta and cheese. I am tired and slowly working on my energy level. No post op pain, minimal soreness. I can't weight to begin losing! Thanks for the TLC!!

Hi Tami, how are you? I just read your message on the board and wanted to let you know that you're not alone experiencing all these emotions. I will be having my surgery on Aug. 13th and I go from being totally wonderfully happy to so sad and emotional. I have read on here about so many women who have experienced the same thing as we are and so I take comfort in knowing that this is normal and I will come out of this feeling better about myself for having gone through with this. I know that God will take care of me and I have faith that He will bring me through this. Even though I have faith I still have all kinds of emotions and worries going on. If you need someone to share your anxieties with feel free to email me. I wish you all the luck in the world on your upcoming surgery. Hang in there. Jackie Gilley
