New Here!

I just found this message board and have never posted anywhere before!! Here goes....I had my lap RNY on June 15, went today for my 2 week check up and I lost....17 pounds! Yippee, gone forever! Just had to tell someone! Ann

Hi Ann Marie; Glad to hear that you are a loser. I had my WLS on the 16th. lost 30 pounds about 40 more too go. I have to go back tomorrow for fluid to be removed if that is what it is. It might be something more serious, thats why I am up this late, nervous. It could be a hernia forming around one of the cuts. Glad too hear from someone that is a Junebee. Keep me inform of your progress. Again congrats on the 17 pounds you lost and more too go away forever kathy

Thanks Kathy for your kind words..just wanted to let you know, I'm sending prayers and good thoughts your way! Good Luck! - Ann

Ann a nother good way to use this site is to read the profiles and make your own. It's like your own story told by you for everyone to learn from, good and bad. Welcome Debbie
