I'm home, post op and feeling good!

Got back from Mexico yesterday - had my open rny on 3/10 and was surprised at how good I felt. I have been a bit tired but really good considering! Just wanted to pop my head in and say "hi" and let those of you who were following that I've come out on the other side! Dina

Hey Dina, I was just wondering how you were. I have been following your journey. I'm happy things went well for you. Keep us pre-op's posted. Take Care, Kris

Congrats! Thats soo awesome! Keep us posted, K? I want pictures, pictures, pictures! Brandi

Thanks everyone. I will definitely be posting pictures as I progress. I am down 10 lbs as of today (9 days out) and feel pretty good. I'm all for the naps myself - been having one every day. But then, that is why I am off work now instead of rushing right back, huh? Dina

Welcome home Dina!! I was glad I took my three weeks off of work....wish I would have taken 4 like the good doctor wanted...but I was anxious to get back in the swing of things. Napping is a good thing!! Get your rest and let that body heal!! I'm soooo happy for you and welcome to the other side. I'm 7 weeks out now.....40 pounds down. This is a fun ride for now, girl!! Welcome aboard! -Mary

Hi! Glad to hear it went well. I am new to the support group here in Medford but, I did sign your card and was wondering how you did? So glad to hear it went well! Hang on!!! It's a great ride! I'm down 75lbs and I go up to Eugene next week for my 3 month check-up. Happy losing! You will do great! Laura

Laura - Nice to "meet" you - I hopefully will meet you at the next meeting. Can you tell me if it is this Tuesday evening? I am thinking it's the right time of the month for that. I am so bad about remembering these things! LOL! I'm looking forward to going this time for sure....need to glean more info from the old pro's now that I'm finally on the losing side! Dina

Hi Dina, No we just had a meeting last Tuesday. And...since this is Tuesday evening it would be to late anyways! I believe they are the first and the third Tuesday. So we have another week before we will meet!!! Hang in there and keep on losin.....laura

Well, I'm glad to hear that because I spaced it off until 7pm tonight. I emailed Virginia and didn't get an answer, so I assumed it was the wrong week. I'll definitely make plans for the 1st Tuesday in April though. I think that is going to be 2 weeks away though. Next Tuesday is the 30th I believe. Look forward to meeting you! Dina
