It has been 2 months...

It has been 2 months since surgery. I feel great. I am walking almost every day. I do chase a 22 month old grandson daily. I get out to swim once a week. I have lost 42 pounds. That added to the 25 I lost before surgery makes a total of 67!!! One thing that has surprised me is the inconsistency of clothing sizes. I can't hook the 24 jeans I have, but the 18's are just perfect. I have had no trouble with any food. I have been out to several holiday parties, so have been exposed to making choices. So far so good

Nancy sounds like you are doing wonderful congrats. Dont you just love those sizes! Next week I will make my 2 month. Hope I am doing as well as you! Tanya

Good Work! I too am 2 months post op, I had it done 10/21. I had some major complications, but it had nothing to do with the surgery. I too, have given away 8 totes full of my plus size clothing. Its a great feeling, but I have nothing to wear. Do you have a support person to help you through some of your concerns or questions/problems? I'm trying to find a support person, because I have so many questions/concerns/issues. Keep up the good work! You should feel great about your progress. Donna

I don't have a consistent support person. I know several people who have had the surgery, but we don't talk very often. I also have questions that I have not found answers to. Mainly questions about exactly what I am suppose to eat and what I totally should avoid. I have had no problems with anything I've eaten. I do try to chew well and take small amounts. The support groups that I know of are not near my home. The closest one is an hour drive away. That isn't very convenient. Do you know of any on line support groups? nancy
