Truly sorry for being MIA so long..since my surgery Dec. 13, 2012 I think I have a total of 90 bad minutes TOTAL. I went in at 432 last week's in doc's office I weighed in at 252. OH YEAH! I followed post op directions to the letter including no beef or pork for six months..no carbonated beverages for the same period I am looking to lose another 50-60 by year's end It is great to have energy and wear 2X shirts again!!

That pain is a monster to deal with. Surgery was 12/13 I can consume the 60 oz of liquids. I have no appetite so I am struggling with 8 oz of protein drink. Also don't need the CPAP machine to sleep -

Thank much My doc says the complications from age have been reduced dramatically because there has been a rash of people born in the late 40s and 50s having the surgery. My wife is more nervous than I am

I opted only to let my wife know. I have learned from the past too many family members are too negative about the surgery
