I see you now Ruthanna!! You are so beautiful and look absolutely great! Congratulations on a job VERY WELL DONE.
You must feel a million times better, huh? I know I do and I'm still working on getting rid of these last pounds.
Have a great day, and I'm glad I can see you now!

Topic: RE: I really don't know when I am full.
Hi Lorraine. I can eat about the same I did at a few months post-op (and I am almost 10 months post-op). I get full pretty quickly and then stay that way until my next meal. I usually only get around 800 calories a day and am COMPLETELY SATISFIED. Some days I get more especially if I go out to eat and then there are some days I barely reach 600 calories. I always feel great though and usually stick to 3 meals a day (for the most part I don't snack). I have lots of energy and exercise a lot. I'm just not hungry (except for head hunger which I battle constantly) which is why I don't consume too many calories at this point. I am sure all of that will change in the future but for now it seems to be working for me. And my weight is still coming off, I've lost 13 pounds this month so far (still have 2 more days left!) and 162 pounds in total since surgery (started at 347 and today I weighed in at 185).
Have a great weekend too.
Topic: RE: test done
The pharmacist tells me that my insurance won't pay for Zelnorm. They want me to use Miralax. I've used it before and it didn't help. I guess I'm doomed to MOM for the rest of my life. I can't afford to pay for it out of pocket as it is nearly $200 for a months supply. Nice, huh?

Since my procedure yesterday, I am eating less than I did last week. About 1000 calories a day, versus 1200-1500 I was eating. I guess it was going two days with no food shrunk my pouch. But I eat a lot compared to others. I can't believe some only eat around 800 calories a day and are satisfied.

Topic: I really don't know when I am full.
Hi there guys, How is everyone doing? I am fine. I am home from the hospital and it seems now that since my hernia was repaired I really don't feel so constipated anymore. 
I get full very quickly and sometimes I don't make the best choices with foods. I get full quickly and then I wind up 
Instead of eating the good stuff, sometimes I eat carbs and drink something and then I get sick. I must learn to shut my mouth. Old habits are hard to break aren't they? Any of you guys have this trouble.
When I go out to eat I can eat so little, I wind up sharing food with my friends. Some of them just don't understand that my intake is very small. I had lunch with my girlfriend who had RNY last august. She ordered this big meal was eating and drinking at the same time. I don't know how she did it.
Do any of you guys feel your pouch is still as small as when you started?
I feel so different than everyone else. Is this normal?
Thank you guys to anyone who answers. You guys do understand if nobody else does.
Have a great weekend.....

HI there Ruthanna
You look great. 
I think you and I had surgery the same day. I had my RNY on 12/15/03. I think I am also the same height as you. I have lost 110 pds and now I am 135 pds. I can't wait to get down a bit more. Most of my friends and family say enough. 
I am so tired of pleasing others. You look great girl. Keep the the good work 
to you sucess .....Lorraine

Nona, I can't believe you were awake. OUCH! I had one a couple of years ago and whatever drugs they gave me were wonderful! I never felt a thing. Hope you're constipation issue is resolved with the Zelnorm.
