Topic: RE: Had my Gastric Bypass On May18th of 2007
THanks for the welcome postings. I have had some back pain lately it is in rib area in back area..I 'm thinking sore muscles cause I do alot of scroll sawing. in my wood shop.I'm trying to get my christmas stuff cut and ready by the 24th of Dec. Out side of that, i 'm feel great. I have lost more weight cause I was wearing a size 16 women's jeans and now they no longer are fitting me. I can not remember the last time I wore a size 14 in jeans maybe when I was 14 years old. this is very strange feeling to wear smaller size clothes i have become best friends with the Goodwill stores in our areas. My surgeon said do not buy New clothes cause you will not be in them that long. And He was right.he also has had this surgery about 5 years ago. So he knows first hand about buying used clothes.He is such a big information source for me Cause he has been there and done that.

Good for you, Donnie! It sure has been an amazing journey. I am down 71 lbs. and LOVING IT!! Only 38 lbs. from my goal. Me and a good friend had WLS together like you and your wife. It makes it nice to go through this with someone you love.
