Day 16 and going strong!

Feb 23, 2011

I wanted to write something in this blog right after surgery but was unsure of what to say.

Today is day 16 - post op and I am feeling pretty good.  I have lost 21 pounds to date but I don't notice the difference.  Of course everyone else around me does, but isn't that how it always is?

I am finding that the foods I used to love - eggs- I can't tolerate as much .  My friends right now are chili and baked potatoes.

Today is my first day of work.  I am having a lot of gas issues right now and figure out why.  I take a sip of water and then fill nauseous after wards.  There is a lot of gas in my tummy and it is making me very uncomfortable. 

We shall see what tomorrow brings!

Hello

Jan 03, 2011

Hi all,
 
My name is Sam and I am new here on OH.com.  I am having gastric bypass surgery on Monday, February 7, 2011.  I am a nervous wreck!  The process was very quick for me and that was unexpected.  I was in the Dr.'s early December and had a surgery date set late December.

I will say that I am glad that I am not alone in this process.  I have a wonderful boyfriend who has had the surgery 3 years ago.  He is my rock and I am happy to have him supporting me.  However, because he has been through the process already and is maintaining, he tries to dismiss my anxiety because he knows what it's like.  I appreciate his enthusiasm and love, but I do wish he would accept the fact that I am scared and that's OK!

Stay blessed all,

Free Me
