Well,it is now June 10th,actually almost June 11th because it is almost midnight.I am really tired and I want to go to Church in the morning but I first I wanted to try to get a quick update up now and I will go into detail tomorrow. So I had my surgery May 30th as planned ,there were a couple of things went wrong beforehand but they were pretty funny and wll tel you about then tomorrow :) Surgery was uneventful.Dr.Wright and his team were wonderful ,and did a beautiful job.I was walking the hallways for 30 minutes that evening and loving it.I was really suprised for open RNY that I wasn't in more pain than than i was.Even now the pain is very low.I got my staples out yesterday the 9th and he said they were healing really well.I graduated to pureed food from full liquids YEA!! I really like those mashed potatoes!.Lets see Oh yes I lost 16 pounds from June 1st to June 9th so is that good? I'm not sure because I had already lost 114 pounds from June 2005 till my surgery while waiting for surgery.It helped alot,except at first I was afraid Dr.Wright wasn't going to do my surgery after loosing so much already.But I figure now this will help maintain what I already lost too. Well my back is killing me .Time to get to bed.Will write more tomorrow.Thanks everyone that has written to me and please keep on and let me know how your doing and about yourself.Also sometimes my bestfriend-Blessed Sister will be putting her 2 cents in (sometimes 3 :) she is a great gal and helps me through everything so don't skip out if she is on either okay.Thanks so much.You are all a great bunch of LOSERS !! Never sounded so good did it :) Love and God Bless You All, Colleen "God always gives His best to those who leave the choice with Him..."

Hi everyone. This is Colleen's Blessedsister. I'll be keeping you updated on her progress till she is able too. She didn't get into surgery till 12:30 this afternoon. She came through surgery just fine and should be in a room by now. I haven't been able to talk to her to find out how she is doing. The nurse in recovrery said she is doing fine. I'll keep you posted till she is able to post herself. Dawn in Southern Indiana
