7 weeks post op and doing well
My surgery was on July 25, 2003. Lost 16 pounds the first week and now have a total of 45 pounds lost. My one problem is that I need to NOT drink water for at least one hour after eating. When I do so everything seems to back up and I end up vomiting. The surgery went real well and Dr. Di Marco was just great. I'm still extreamily constantly sleeping around 12=15 ;hours a day which really sucks. The doc said that is not unusual and will calm down with time. 45 pounds down and 105 to go.
Congrats to you!!!!! I had open RNY on the same day as you. I have lost 52 lbs as of today. I can't believe that this is happening so fast for me. I thought that I would be one of the slow losers. I don't sleep alot. just 6-7 hrs a day. I would love to take a nap during the day but I am at work 12-8pm. I took a nap around 2pm when I was at home. Sure miss the naps. lol Hope you continue to do so well. Hugs, Paula
