surgery at 36 sexy for 40

You go girl! Melissa

Hello all I just turned 35 middle of August and I am 7 days post op. Doing good so far. Just can't wait for the "pouch" to start feeling normal. Still feel like I have alien innards. I am glad they have a 30's Board. I just hope It takes off well. Big Hugs Kimberly 304/130/280

Hi Kimberly I turned 35 in June, 3 weeks before my surgery. So, 36 should be a little different. Sharyn -52

Hi Kimberely So how are you feeling? what has the first week been like? i am so scared to have the surgery even tho i know its the best thing for me. I would love to chat with you via e-mail if you feel up to it. I turned 36 in MAY and have 3 kids and a great husband. we weigh close to the same pre-op (i am 281).My WLS is scheduled for OCT 10th. Hope you are feeling better soon and enjoy the weight lose and the new life you have begun !! Congrats Claudia

Hello Claudia, I feel reall good. I had my first experience with dumping last night. I had sf Bryers ice cream. That did not go well. My stomach was VERY noisey and even my throat was making very loud noises. And I spent about an hour in the bathroom. I will be honest. It wasnt bad. Very tolerable. But I know not to have the ice cream again. even though it was sugar free. I am not having good luck with milk products. I am probably Lactose intolerant now. Anyway, Other than that little thing. I am perfectly fine. I still get tired easy. The first week was hard Claudia I am not going to lie. I didnt want to eat anything. But you HAVE to. I am getting as much liquids as I can get into my body because I dont want to dehydrate. But I am 9 days post op now and guess what?? I am down 29 pounds!! I am so excited we were taking pictures of me on the scale with a huge smile on my face. I would love to chat with you via email. Anything I can do to help I will. My email addy is [email protected] Oh last night my mom decided to have the surgery too!!! I cannot be happier. Big Hugs Good Luck Love Always Kimberly T 304/275/130
