Guest guest Posted April 27, 2000 Report Share Posted April 27, 2000 , You sound like you are doing wonderful, Did you have any complications? This is kinda personal but did your skin shrink with you? That is my husband main concern.. I have to laugh because I already have loose skin. I told him he was in denial. And I plan on having a tummy tuck when the time comes. I know it is painful but that is what pain pills are for.

Guest guest Posted April 27, 2000 Report Share Posted April 27, 2000 Hey Jane! I am feeling pretty good! As you know, since the surgery, the only real problem I have had is the chronic fatigue etc. Well, I think that a big part of me did not want to admit that I needed something to help me get through all this. I did not want to admit that even after losing 70lbs that I would need an antidepressent. Ya know? Well, I have started it back, and there is no stopping me now! LOL I am soooooo hyper it seems. I am happy, and full of energy. It is so funny. Who cares...I will take this forever if it will keep me happy. I started at a size 24 and am now in a 16-18 pants and a size 14-16 top. I still have the huge butt and thigs, and they are not leaving. I can feel my ribs and my hip bones and it amazes me. I only hate my tummy! YUCK!! I am hoping that with 40 more lbs that the tummy will go. Lots of stretch marks too! UgH! Really though, i am getting tons of compliments and I feel great. The hair loss has started and that sucks, but is not too bad. Even with all that said.....I am SOOOOO HAPPY!!!! Thanks for asking sweetie! How are you doing these days???

Guest guest Posted April 27, 2000 Report Share Posted April 27, 2000 Jane! YOU GO! I bet you can already tell a difference with some of the weight gone, huh? I know, I started at 261 (271 highest) and I was told that it may be slower for me. I have weighed in reliegiously on ONE set of scales since the surgery and they said 191 on Easter. I weighed in one week b-4 that at my dr and it said 201. I wanted to cry. I decided to keep going with the ones that I use though. I know that I have to be under 200 or I would not be able to get into a misses 18 pants. I have not been out of plus size since Jr High! I am estatic. Have been having some pain in my left rib cage. Thought I was having a heart attack at one point. Sent Dr R a note, and BAM...he answered. GOD LOVE THAT MAN!!!! He said it was probably gastritis and to start on the prilosec and carafate again. I never took the carafate(BAD MICHELLE) and I don't have any prilisec left. What do I do now? Glad to hear you feel well! YOU KEEP GOING GIRL!!!!

Guest guest Posted April 27, 2000 Report Share Posted April 27, 2000 Thanks Jane! I think I do have one more refill for the prilosec. I think Dr R will need to call in the Carafate for me. I am hoping this will help. Hope I have not developed and ulcer. I have NOT eaten anything today except 2 bites of a sandwich at work today...and 2 more bites of potatoe salad tonight. It just does not want to go down. Thought i was having heart attack in the kitchen earlier. THank God for Dr R!!! HE ROCKS!!!

Guest guest Posted April 27, 2000 Report Share Posted April 27, 2000 Thanks Jane! I think I do have one more refill for the prilosec. I think Dr R will need to call in the Carafate for me. I am hoping this will help. Hope I have not developed and ulcer. I have NOT eaten anything today except 2 bites of a sandwich at work today...and 2 more bites of potatoe salad tonight. It just does not want to go down. Thought i was having heart attack in the kitchen earlier. THank God for Dr R!!! HE ROCKS!!!

Guest guest Posted April 27, 2000 Report Share Posted April 27, 2000 I do have to say this... I am almost 5 months out and have lost 70 lbs thus far. Gone from a size 24 to a size 16/18 bottom and a 14/16 top. I have been very offended by the comments of late regarding the success of the MGB. Such comments as the one { if you did not know they had surgery, you would still say that they are fat, really burned me up. I am now under 200 lbs and yes I am still overweight; However, I am FEELING better than I have in years and I LOOK GOOD! I have even been asked to model for a couple of agencies. Yes, it has been hard. Hard as Hell! I won't lie to anyone. But when you stop and look at the results, you will plainly see I made the best decision for me. How many people do you know can say they have dropped that much weight in less than 5 months? And I will be really honest and say that I have only excercied twice. Not something to be proud of, but obviously the MGB works. Most of the people I have spoken to who are a year out or further have almost hit there goal weight. Talk to Kathy Goodman... You have to be realistic in your goals. I am hoping and praying for 150...but I am 5'8 and large boned. I look damn good right now, and if I did not lose one more lb I would be happy and would recommend it to anyone. Your own body will know where you need to be. Basically...I am on target according to Dr R's charts. Come August I should be at Goal if not sooner. Just some inspiration. WIll get you all some pixs this weekend! Love to you all!

Guest guest Posted April 28, 2000 Report Share Posted April 28, 2000 If you ask the doc REAL NICE he may prescribe Carafate TABLETS for you. That was what I got when I had an attack of gastritis about a month ago. E.
