Next week I am having revision surgery.  My original surgery was in june 2001 lap rny.  My pouch was made too large and has grown to 500cc.  The surgeon is going back in and redoing the pouch and stoma.  I will be just like a new again.   I am excited because I will lose between 30 and 60 lbs and keep it off this time.  I have regained 30 lbs since my original surgery.  Medically my first surgery was a success but I have TERRIBLE burping constantly and reflux. My insurance will not pay for this surgery because it has an exclusion about weight loss surgery and any medical treatment needed because of weight loss surgery.  Fortunately, I can afford it. I am 53 years old and feel like I am 20.  My husband loves me the way I am but I do miss being a size 8 for him.  I still have  my clothes from that time since it hasn't been that long ago.  I packed them away in the attic in boxes that said small clothes.  SMALL CLOTHES.  Ya'll , I'm gonna get back into my small clothes! I just can not describe how happy I am.  I love my husband and I really want to be the trophy wife he deserves.  I'm gonna feel pretty and sexy again.
