I'm super new to the whole blog thing.  I am a single mom and in Nov 2009 I decided to go forward with bariatric surgery.  After having my son, I ballooned and never went back down.  Not sure how I was able to diet and NOT lose weight with as much as I now have to lose, but it's been approx 5 years and I have never been able to get below 300lbs.  I'm looking forward to seeing my weight in the 200's again and eventually in the 100's again.  I didnt have lots of issues with other health problems, but I developed sleep apnea.  I look forward to losing that machine, as a single mom, I would eventually like to date again and I view the cpap as the anti-man magnet!  My first few days post-op have been rough.  Lots of gas.  It's in my neck.  I havent taken pain meds except for Tylenol.   The incisions are tender but not painful.  The most pain is the gas.  I have lost 7lbs in the past 4 days.  Woot!
