What happens to people after surgery?  Its like after surgery they post that it is complete and then "poof" they are gone and no further information.  Well, I would like to know how you guys are doing so please post.  I miss you and hope you are all doing fantastic!

I was just thinking about that yesterday.  One version is everything went great and they are on their way to success. Other version is - there were complications. My mind goes to the complications and I get nervous. Guys, please post, share your stories.

lol  I hear you my friend...

Passed my nut/beh a few weeks ago and no word yet on a date for my pre-op or meet the surgeon.  I am going to call tomorrow and check to see everything is ok. Who knows, maybe they need some other test or something.  The waiting is really hard.

Hello, i am 9.5 weeks post op. Things are going well,no complications at all. Only had one episode of eating too much too fast. Trust me you only do that once!!!! Agony for 5 hours, wouldnt go down or come up. That was at about week 4.  I was not working when i had my surgery, but was offered a full time job 2 weeks ago, it is not in the field i have worked for the last 30 years. Soooo there has been some stress and i'm happy to report that i am NOT turning to food for stress relief. Takes a little planning to make sure i bring ebpniugh food for the day. But i track everything in a book, have been doing it daily since surgery, it helps. Also only weigh myself once a week. Its hard not to compare your weight loss against others, but i am doing my best to remind myself this is my journey and it will not be the same as anybody else. Good luck everyone, one day at a time.

Thank you for posting and glad to hear you are doing well.  Congratulations on the job - sounds great!  Do you find that you are not hungry at all at this point?  I have heard others say that and was curious...
