Hello Pa Friends, 

Sorry I haven't posted here more, I say that evertime I post..hehe!!  Some of you may not know me but I stumbled here back in Febuary and finally had my Duodenal Switch surgery on 10.29.08.   I am doing great and have lost 40lbs already!!   I am still getting used to the eating, protien, protein, protein.  But over all I am doing well with it, still working on getting up to my requirements.  My surgery went well, although I did spend two days in ICU because my blood pressure shot up and I guess my oxygen level was low.  After that my recover went pretty smooth.  I was able to get back to work in about 3 weeks.  I swore I would take the whole 4 weeks off but I got bored.   Well there isn't much else to report, other than that.  Just wanted to check in with you all, I do cruise over and check in on you all now and then even though I don't always post.  You all were my first inspirations here on OH. 

Happy Losing everyone!!
