Well Hello Susan! Congratulations on your 24 lbs lost for good! Excellant news! I had my surgery on July 12, 2004. I am happy I made this decision.

I have an opening on my incision but other than that, i feel pretty okay How about you? Good to see you posting Have a great day!

Hi Susan, I had my surgery on July 19 and I'm down about 26 lbs.. Having a bit of trouble getting food and liquids in - I've got a grouchy pouchy.... Hanging in there though. Hopefully it will get better soon! Glad everything is going well with you!! Hugs, Nancy

Hi Susan, I had surgery on July 27 and I'm doing great! I can drink tons of water, swallow pills with little trouble and most foods I've tried seem fine with me. I lost about 18 lbs. since Monday (which was my first followup and I had about the same weight as when I went for my PATs). My only real difficulties were "sleepy bowels" with lots of gas, which is now gone, and this week I'm beginning to feel a bit fatigued. But I'm also doing waaaay more than last week! irene
