Updating things..

Hello everyone, Thought maybe I should give an update sence I am now tommarrow 10 weeks post op.. I am down a total of plus 60 pounds so far.. I had a leak at 8 weeks but the pain is now forgotten,.. The leak was due to 2 ulsers one in the pouch, and one in the intestines.. Dr. Brown started me on calfrate 4 times a day to heal the ulsers up.. and redused my water intake from 120 ounces a day to 50 ounces a day, to keep stress off the pouch. and holding my food intake to 3 ounces three times a day. and advised me to take 30 minutes to eat my meals.. This has been very helpfull in helpping with the healing process of the ulsers.. But I haft to admit is hard to slow so far down in eating, then there is the issue to take the meds wait one hour to eat, wait one hour to drink then all over again.. I sometimes feel I am waiting more then drinking or eating .. But I am feeling so much better this past few days now, I am getting stronger now I feel, and sometimes a bit hungry.. I am now a clock watcher, waiting for the time to tick to get a drink or meds or food.. Oh well this is for my health.. I don't regret the surgery, And never will.. Audrey
