Well, it’s official! You’re on the losing side. The trumpets are blaring, the cymbals are crashing and the drums are drumming – all for YOU! I hope that all went well for you! You’ve been out of surgery now for a little over a month – YIPPIE!!! Your journey will have moments to “pause” – I’d like to impart some words of wisdom for when it does occur - remember these wise words whispered by Confucius – “It does not matter how slowly you go so long as you do not stop.” Be patient. You didn’t put it on over night, it won’t come off over night (DARN IT!)…Don’t forget to update your profile at least monthly and take lots of pictures…the transformations will make your jaw drop!!! RNY 10/31/03 – down 100 pounds TODAY AND AN OFFICIAL MEMBER OF THE CENTURY CLUB!!! Good luck!

This is Connie and I would just like to update my page. I am 1 week postop and down 8#s so far. I am adjusting and feeling better as each day passes. The Hospital was not bad. I spent the first night in the ICU and got no sleep at all due to my roommate, who was on a ventilater. the rest was fairly uneventful. I came home on Monday morning. I have been slowly decreaseing the need for pain medicine and have actually been walking around the block. I am still on the full liquids. I drink 2-3 high protein smooties a day and sip on water all day. I also will have a few bites of applesauce, jello, cream of wheat. I am still trying to figure out what an appropriate sip size is. Anyway I am so excited about this new chapter. Thanks for all the encourageing emails. Love, Connie

You will have ups and downs. You can always turn to us, your AMOS family, we will give support, comfort and encouragement.
