Hi everybody!

I had RNY on 1/11/11, and yesterday was my first time out of the house.  I went to a family birthday party and then later a family get-together.  Several people noticed I had lost weight and told me I looked good.  One lady overhead us talking about my surgery and told me I was "not big enough to have had the surgery".  I told her she did not see me before, LOL.  I can tell in my clothes I have lost weight, and I will find out the amount on February 3 when I go back for my first postop visit.

I am surprised at how my tastes have changed since surgery.  Several of you had told me that might happen, and it did.

I want to thank all of you for your support in this journey.  You have been wonderful!

Good to hear you are getting out.  Every day gets better =)  You will be shocked at how fast you will make progress....even when it seems slow, it is still fast.

Its good that you felt like getting out and about.  I wouldnt go out and start buying brand new clothes because that will cost you.  I  changed sizes every week.  I went to GOODWILL and the Thrift Store in ALabaster.  Alot of yardsales too.
