Hi everyone. Well it's day 6 of my new life. My RNY was on 7/31/12, I spent 2 days in the hospital which went really good. My only complaint was how sore my throat felt- not internally but externally. Finally figured out after looking in the mirror and seeing one dandy of a bruise - one of the probes dropped on my throat and chest - before my Doc entered surgery. Can honestly say that was my only pain 1st 3 days. Everyone has been very encouraging with me - " this is the beginning to the new Rhonda!" is what I'm constantly hearing. I'm also currently going thru a divorce after 24 years of marriage to my high school sweetheart. Been together for 28 yrs. Found out one year ago this month that HE and who I thought was my Best Friend were having as they called it " just a secret friendship". I decided my marriage was important enough to try and rebuild but on Dec26,2011 -I was told he was done and he moved out. Merry Christmas to me! Needless to say - I'm ready for putting myself first for the first time in 24+ years. So - as of this morning - 11 lbs of the old me is GONE!!! I have a long way to go but at least I'm on my way- Now if only I could get all my water in .... My next challenge to overcome .... Stay Tuned

My largest is dead center right above my belly button but my left side is more tender

Congrats!!!! You are on your way!
