Hi! It has been a while since I posted- wanted to fill you in on my progress thus far. I had the RNY on June 4 at Albany Med. I had the laproscopic done. Today I am pleased to report that the pain in my incisions are better each day. I went to the doctor two weeks ago and had lost 25 pounds the first two weeks. I was thrilled! I am down a total of 60 pounds to date. I do not have a scale at home but do hop on weekly at the hospital where I work. I am struggling with the self image- and actually seeing the weight loss in the mirror, but my clothes are telling on me. I have really only had two episodes of vomiting so I believe I am lucky. I am not hungry alot so I force myself to eat somthing when my family eats so that I stay healthy. Due to the loss- I have eliminated two pills-I am thrilled about that since I struggle with pills- I hope everyone has a wonderful 4th - Take care- Vicki

Congrats to you, Vicki, It sounds as it is all coming together for you. Are you doing any walking yet? That will really help you. Continued success to you! Sue
