STATS: Amanda
Open BPD/DS: September 22, 2005 (2.5 weeks ago)
Pre-Op Weight Loss: none, I ate like the world was gonna end! lol
Weight loss since surgery: 20 lbs. (As of my 2 week checkup: 10/5/2005... 13 days out at time of checkup)
Starting Weight/Current Weight/Goal Weight: 364/344/Anything under 199! (But wouldn't 130-150 be cool?)
Dumping: None. That's why I picked the DS. I eat whatever I want. No pain (just kind of achey), no vomiting, no nausea, no heartburn, etc.
Constipated or Diarrhea: Diarrhea. (That's the downfall of the DS... Liquid poop!) I go once, maybe twice a day. Usually early morning. (6am ish)
Incision pain: None. It sometimes feels numb though. Tingly, like it's 'asleep'.
Energy level: Pretty good. Same as before, if not a little bit better. I am able to push myself to walk briskly around the block everyday.
For now,
Amanda =)
