WELL I AM ALMOST 2 MONTHS POST-OP AND I HAVE LEARNED WHAT I CAN AND CANNOT DO WITH THIS POUCH, 1ST OF ALL, EATING A MEAL IN THE EARLY AM IS NOT HAPPENING, I HAVE LEARNED TO TAKE VERY SMALL BITES WHEN I EAT CHEW, CHEW, CHEW, AND WHEN I GET THE FIRST FEELING OF FULLNESS STOP IMMEDIATELY, SO I HAVEN'T HAD ANY VOMITING FOR A WHILE, AND I AM DOWN 54 LBS, SO I AM ELATED, JUST TRIED ON SOME PANTS I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO WEAR FOR ABOUT 5 YEARS, SO I AM  PATTING MYSELF ON THE BACK RIGHT NOW, I HAVE BEEN WORKING OUT, AND ACTUALLY ENJOYIN IT, I HOPE TO BE DOWN AT LEAST ANOTHER 20LBS BY MY HUSBAND BIRTHDAY, WHICH IS AT THE END OF AUGUST!!!

WELL I AM OVER A MONTH OUT OF SURGERY, AND STILL TRYING TO FIGURE OUT HOW MY POUCH WORKS, ITS A MOODY LITTLE BASTARD!! LMAO, SOME DAYS I DO WELL, SOME DAYS NOT SO WELL, LEARNED NOT TO EAT IN AM JUST DO A PROTEIN SHAKE AND FRUIT, AND CALL IT A DAY, STILL DOING SOUPS, AND SOFT FOOD, HAVE TO LEARN CHEW WELL, REMEMBER TO GET MY PROTEIN AND FLUID INTAKE, AND LEARNING NOT TO DRINK AND EAT TAKING IT ONE DAY AT A TIME, BUT ON A GOOD NOTE I AM DOWN 42 LBS, SO THAT IS ALL GOOD

OKAY 3 WEEKS AND 3 DAYS POST-OP, FEELING OKAY, BUT I HAVE NO STAMINA, NOTICING WALKING AROUND THE BLOCK WITH MY KIDDOS, CAUSES ME TO BE TIRED, OR JUST GETTING READY FOR WORK, HOPING TAKING MY MULTIVITAMINS AND INCREASING PROTEIN INTAKE WILL HELP, I HAVE LOST 19 LBS SINCE SURGERY, SO I DONT KNOW IF THAT IS EFFECTING MY STAMINA.

WELL TODAY I AM 3 DAYS POSTOP, ALL IS WELL EXCEPT I HAVE GAS OUT OF THIS WORLD ( I KNOW TMI) BUT BESIDES A LITTLE SORENESS AND GAS EVERYTHING IS GOING OKAY, I HAD TO LEAVE MY HUSBAND FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS AND COME STAY WITH MY PARENTS SO I COULD HAVE HELP WITH MY BABIES, AND MY MOM IS A NURSE, SO THAT IS A BIG HELP,  MY TASTE BUDS HAVE MOST DEFINITELY CHANGED, A LITTLE SALT TASTE LIKE A BOAT LOAD OF SALT, SO SOUPS ARE OUT RIGHT NIGHT, BEEN EATING CREAM OF WHEAT WITH A LITTLE MARGARINE AND SPLENDA, JUST TAKIN IT DAY BY DAY

WELL, IM 4 WKS OUT FROM HAVING MY SURGERY, I HAVING SOME DOUBTS, A LITTLE AFRAID, HUSBAND KEEPS TELLING ME IF I DONT GET THE SURGERY, HE PROMISES TO GET ME A PERSONAL TRAINER, AND IF I DO GET THE SURGERY AND LOSE TO MUCH WEIGHT, HE PROMISES HE WILL GET ME PREGNANT AGAIN!! LOL
