1 Mth In 50 Lbs Down

[MommyHand 45]

Had my surgery on 9/5/12, it has been a long hard month. Filled with many trips to the ER, lots of Dr. appointments, pain and highs & lows. But as of 10/5/12 I am down 50lbs. Still have a long way to go and hoping it starts getting smoother.

Glad to get an update from you. 50 lbs gone is great! Keep at it I think it should be getting easier.

Hello and Congrats MommyHand, that's awesome news....I just got converted from Lapband to Gastric on Oct. 10th, and its going well so far. So if its not to personal, can you tell us what sort of problems did you have that caused you to go in and out of the hospital?

Surgery date October 10, 2012

Congrats! What a great beginning... it does get better. I think the first couple of months are the hardest in terms of adjusting and complications. After that you get to enjoy the ride, including all the up and downs and stalls.

So I ended up in the hospital for several weeks. Couldn't keep anything down for weeks & weeks. I was eventually put on TPN/IV nutrition. Now I am not loosing weight. I have no feeling in my legs. Was told it was from severe malnutrition.
