Topic: RE: How are all the July surgery people doing???

Hi, all! I had my surgery (RNY) July 5. down 20lbs, but even better, off the High Blood pressure meds AND have cut my insulin in more than 1/2!! DBF made some delicious seafood gumbo (no rice for me) and I was able to enjoy some. Been doing good with the foods, but also being super cautious not to eat anything over 10 grams of sugar. No problems at all, to speak of. Very Very happy!!

I'm Ready!

My surgery was July 13th, and so far so good. I wanted to lose weight faster but I am happy that my eating is under control and now to start exercising more, got through the light-headedness and dizziness and now feel pretty good. pre-op weight loss total was: 17 lbs. and post-op weight loss by my scale is: 21 lbs. I am happy I have no more swelling in my legs and ankles :) and BP is down. Congrats to you on your 20 lbs that is awesome.

Oh geesh, that's not good. The only thing I can think of is that maybe something got stuck in your stoma/pouch? Have you been sticking with soft foods? Or have you moved on to other foods? That could be why.

It actually sounds like you have a stomach virus, but who knows if it's surgery related.

I'm not sure what you mean about your legs tightening up drawing...

When was your surgery date? Are you feeling any better today?

I had my surgery late in July (27th) but am doing great so far. No side effects yet and a 20 pound loss before my mini-stall. Would love to hear from you all!
