My RNY was 12/21/04

I'm doing really well, I've lost 13 since surgery and had lost 11 the month prior to surgery. The thing with me? I feel smaller. Sure, I'm 24 lbs smaller, but that is a drop in the bucket at 259 now. But, I feel lighter and able to move better. My clothes fit better and are more spacious. I can't wait to progress from clear liquids to full and then to soft! I'd KILL for an egg today. Anyway, I'll post my progress with the rest of you. I've been reading posts for 7 months, I'm just thrilled to have something to share now! Love you all, Karen 284/259/145

Doing good Karen! (Oh, I am with you on the egg! lol I was so wanting one today. Hoping that at my checkup Wednesday everything looks good and they will say I can now have them.lol) So far everything here is going good and I am so very thankful for this surgery! Kathy Lap Rny 12/16/04 242/225/120

Hey Kathy - I've been eating a scrambled egg w/cheese for a couple of days now. Even though I really wanted one - now that I can have them, they don't taste as good. Cottage cheese tastes better to me that it used to but most things I've tried don't taste as good. Hope your doing well! Candy

Glad to hear your doing so well. My surgery was on the 21st also. I am doing pretty good still a little sore but mostly if I cough. I used my scales today and if they are right I have lost 10lbs so far. You keep up the good work and happy new year.

Had my open RNY on the 21st too. I am so glad to find this board and see how others with my surgery date are progressing. I am still a little slower that I would like, quick to tire, sometimes a little shakey feeling. I am on liquids and am so tired of it. My husband just ate some chips and the smell almost did me in! I wouldn't tell him though, he has been an angel to help me. Let's keep in touch.
