It's about time..

......I fessed up and stopped hiding LOL  It will be 6 years this August since my surgery. RNY I have had such a great life since but have gained weight.  At first you tend to think, NO this isn't happening AGAIN, then you go into hiding, thinking you're a loser. Well, I am hungry all the time. Not appetite, HUNGRY. I feel like I am never full. I can't eat a whole lot at once, but am hungry very quickly after eating. Well, after I stopped the denial and saw my surgeon and had an endoscopy yesterday, I found out I am not crazy! My pouch is still very tiny but my stoma is the size of my pouch so literally everything I eat goes right through me. Right now I am not sure of the next step but will see if a revision is in the future soon.  I had a very successful support group here in Pasadena in my home. I stopped it when my dad got pretty ill with Alzheimer's and I had to travel to St. Louis a lot. I am considering starting a new group again. It was a lot of fun and very relaxed. I feel I have a lot to offer and a lot to learn by having a group. Anyone interested???? Glad to be back! Diane
