I had RNY 9/27/11. I am doing well, feeling good, and losing slowly but consistently.  How are things going for everyone else? My only complaint would be ongoing gas, but I will take it. No issues otherwise.

I had rny on 9/19 and have breezed through recovery. My biggest complaint is constipation, but mirilax helps that. I also am losing slowly but surely. Wish I had done it years ago.

Amazingly I don't even miss diet dr. pepper, which I had been addicted to.

Well, I'm a Sept surgery, but Sept 9, 2010.  Just to let you all know, the next year is going to be exciting.  It is a great journey, everything keeps getting better.  I've been at goal for a while now and easily maintaining.  I've gone from a size 20-22 to a 4 or 6.  I'm off all my meds.  Getting ready for a knee replacement this week because my knee didn't improve but recovery will be so much easier with 105 lbs gone.  I can eat anything with no issues.  Just keep on keeping on everyone and the next year will fly by and you will be thrilled at the end.

I had surgery on 9/6.   Best thing other than my children that has happen to me.  Current;y I am down 51lbs.  I have had two stalls that seem to take forever to end.  As mention in a earlier post my biggest complaint is constipation.  I have added 2 snacks of 1 cup of brand cereral a day.   That seems to have address the constipation issue.   I can't believe how good I feel

I had surgery on 9/12 and I am doing well!! I had a stricture early out, but that was only a small "bump" in the road!!! I am 36lbs down, and although I wi**** were more, I am very happy with my pouch!!!

My knee really hurts so I still can't exercise. I am waiting until I can at least walk for exercise.... I know that will really increase my metabolism and therefore my weight loss.... Hopefully a few more pounds and I will be there... If not, we will take it a day at a time. :-)

I can't do chicken yet, I will be glad when I can because it will open up sooo many options. I am doing ok on eggs and turkey bacon and turkey chili.... And the occassional EAS carb advantage shake....


Rock On RNY!!! Woooo Hooooo

I revised from lapband to RNY on 9/26 and I am also doing very well. Went back to work in a week and have felt wonderful! I cannot believe how much better I feel without the band induced reflux! Sleeping at night is awesome! Weightloss is slow but I expected that - down 17 pounds since preop liquid diet. My ultimate would be another 20 pounds, but I am going to shoot for another 10 by summertime! Glad to hear everyone is doing so well! Keep up the hard work. . . oh and Happy Thanksgiving!



Hope your day is great!

Mine was Sept 2nd. I had a pretty easy recovery! I have had some time of not losing weight...which drives me crazy but I have been losing inches. I LOVE the gym and go about 5 days a week. I am doing things there that I never thought possible...like spinning! I love my RNY and am so happy I did this for myself!

Hi I had RNY on 9/12 and feel great.  I have lost 41 lbs since surgery and have had no problems.  I'm walking for exercise, my clothes are too big and I love it!  I have more energy and am so happy with the way things are going.

Good luck to everyone!  Kelly
