Surgery 9 months ago -all is well!

I've been a bad lady and haven't posted, but to tell the truth I am SURPRISED that everything went as smoothly as it did. After 2 days I was out of Princeton University Hospital and within a week watching my granddaughter again. I've lost 106 lbs and feel great. I DID have some pain after my granddaughter rode me like a horsie and she was a bit hard to handle because she wanted to be carried quite a bit and loves to play rough, but I had one day where I was in a few hours of pain. The holidays were so much easier and my ankles don't swell anymore! I HARDLY know myself as I look at my new figure and I'm able to clean my home and shop without being exhausted and in pain.

hi sandy this is great news!! congrats on your weight loss and how wonderful that all is going well for you. it must be nice to be able to play with your granddaughter and to do your errands etc. i agree about the holidays, everything seems easier to do now. i had my surgery a day after you and my weight loss journey has been about the same. life is wonderful now. isnt it nice that we both have found the losing side!! continued success to you, jacki

Sandy~ Congratulations on your surgery and recovery going so well, with no side effects or problems. That is wonderful. You have lost a lot of weight! Keep up the good work and continue to enjoy your life, even the "cleaning the house" part of it! Michelle Brennan

Hi, Glad to hear you are doing so well.  I'm hoping to have surgery as well, with Dr. Chau.  I like him a lot and he cares.   What was your experience like with him having the bypass?  And Princeton Hospital.  You can read all about my problem in my profile. Hugs to you..Kristin
