I had my surgery on March 24th. I am doing fabulous now but had some complications after surgery. My kidneys stopped functioning, my BSL was close to 400, and my oxygen levels and BP levels were very low. I ended up being in the hospital for a week. The doctors and specialist fixed me all up though. I went for a 2 week appointment instead of a 1 week appointment and I had gained 16 lbs because of all the fluid in my legs and feet.
I am happy I had the surgery though and am starting to see the weightloss benefit. I went shopping today and bought a new dress and shoes to go back to work on Tuesday. They were already a smaller size. I am glad to be going back because I am getting very bored at home.

Sorry for your complications, but welcome to the Loser's bench, we're happy to have you. Hopefully the complications are behind you and it's all down-scale from here!
Congrats!
