Thanks!  I feel like a different person, which is sort of weird, but I think I'm coming to terms with it.  Or I'm just so distracted by everything else going on right now that it doesn't bother me right now ;)

I am looking at your info (iloveavens) and I see you had a vertical sleeve w/complications and then you 

had a RNY due to complications---can you explain what complications there were and what caused the RNY to be done?   Do you know if this is rare?   I am considering having a sleeve surgery in May.   I really want to look at all the possible complications, etc.

CONGRATULATIONS! :) You look fantastic.  And those numbers are super impressive. You should be incredibly proud of what you've accomplished.  And yes - extra pride in taking care of yourself while the world is going pear shaped around you.  That's not something we always do for ourselves and it's so important!

Good luck in your 5K tomorrow.  I'll be thinking of you while I run mine on the other side of the river! :)

Thanks!  How did your 5k go?  Was your weather as miserable as ours was? :P
