You all know me as the old chick, but I was once a newbie too!
And I have the blog posts to prove it. If anyone is interested in what I was like, thinking, etc. as a new post-op, here are a few selections I just came across in an old blog I used to keep.
At 12 days post-op:

After my two-week follow-up, after which I was thrilled to have lost 12.8 lbs.

The heights of my early scale obsession:

Just over 6 months post-op and 100 lbs. down:
http://frazzlescribe.blogspot.com/2008/07/hide-your-twinkies -here-comes-health.html
I stopped posting as often after that fall and in 2009 I started Bariatric Foodie so that's where most of my energy went. It has been so fun reading the "old me." I forget her sometimes, but she was a cool chick!
Anyway, I hope something in there provides a laugh, some encouragement, something.

RNY Gastric Bypass 1-8-08 350/327/200 (HW/SW/CW). I spend most of my time playing with my food over at Bariatric Foodie - check me out!
I was speaking of my Bariatric age...
For the record, I am 25 and I will be for at least another 9 years ;) This is called the "Michael Jackson Method of Aging." Except without weird plastic surgery. Well...maybe a little...

I really enjoyed reading those blogettes... you should have been a writer because you do it so well (er... maybe you are a writer and I just don't know it... LOL) I saw so much of my own stuff (since I am a relative newbie) in what you wrote. I wish I would have blogged from the beginning but can't undo that so just move forward.
ps - what ever happened with that guy?
pps - I think I am older than all of y'all!

Um...I am a writer.
It's what I do for a living. It still surprises the hell out of me that I earn an actual paycheck from it but wonders never cease!
