My surgery went well on the 13th of February. I like to say I gave myself an early Valentine's Day present!!! I ended up having to spend two weeks at a rehab hospital because I was terrible weakened by the 10 day liquid diet I had to be on before the surgery. That turned out to be fortuitous though because some schmoe that works at the regular hospital came into my room one day and he was coughing and blowing his nose. I remember wondering what in the world this sick man was doing in my room. He was there with a group of people the morning after my surgery. Well I ended up getting what he had and in my weakened state it made me very ill. So I spent two weeks getting my strength and energy back to where I could at least care for myself. I still tend to tire out easily but other than that I'm doing good and have lost close to 40 pounds since the middle of December shortly after I went for the initial meeting. Its sure nice to be on the losing side of my weight!!

Congrats!! Sorry you got sick afterward, but honestly, that probably "sped up" your weight loss!! We have to "take what we can get when we can get it" LOL. Be sure and keep your Proteins high and take those vitamins!! Hugs, Pam

Hello Cowgirl Sue, I'm so sorry to hear of your difficult time, but glad to hear from you again. Welcome to the other side. It's surely going to be better than the introduction. I hope we can talk bands, recipes and life really soon. Onward! Frances
