Dr. Bill's one month followup

[Guest guest]

All right, Pals-o-mine,

Here is my one month post-op report.

I had to go in on the 29th of June after a June 2 MGB due to the Holidays. So I

was 1 day short of four weeks.

I weighed 348! So for the first time in about a year or so, my local Dr. Carson

did not have to use that " extra little weight " for the >350!! Dr Carson was

very concerned that I was not getting enough protien.

WOW!!! I knew somebody got my extra # and I blamed it on Flo and it was you.

Congratulations. Do you have a new wardrobe yet? Do your pt still recognize

you? Way to go. Keepup the good work.

Dear Dr. Bill,

Yeahhhhhhh!! I am so very happy for your results. How tall are

you? Is that the consideration Dr. R uses for taking that extra 2

feet? (smile) If so I will tell him that I am really 6 feet tall

instead of 5'10 " ...LOL Besides feeling like the incredible melting

man how are you feeling in general? Congratulations again on your

success!

Love,

MGB scheduled July 19th with my sisters:

Dr. Bill,

Fantastic - 45 pounds in a month! Congratulations.

So, what are you doing about the protein deficit? Are you drinking

whey protein drinks?

Thanks for the reply Darlene!

I don't have to buy a new wardrobe. I lost 86 lbs 4 years ago [which I

gained back]. You ought to see my closet. It looks like a clothing store.

I have hangers labeled with computer labels. I had from a 60 waist to a 38

waist. [pack-rat--pack-rat lol] I gave away everything >56 since my surgery

and my 56s are way loose on me. I guess I should have saved one of those 60

trousers for one of those comical " after " photos.

Bye Darlene

I guess I am probably going to go with a supplement. I have so far just

been trying to eat more foods with protein in them, beans; sardines,

legumes, etc.

Dear Dr. Bill...

Wow! I suddenly feel two inches taller...LOL. Actually with

the weight that I am now people do not actually realize that I am in

fact 5'10'. It must be they are following the line of my width

rather than my height. Hopefully soon that won't be an option. What

is the matter with your leg and how long, (mileage and time) are you

waling for?

Soon to be MGBingly yours,

T.

Hi ,

I developed a DVT [blood clot] in my lower left leg. My local docs say it

probably had nothing to do with my surgery--maybe related to travel and the

kind of stools I use at work [dentistry]. I was confined to bed giving

myself injections of Lovenox twice a day and am currently on Coumadin to

" dissolve " the clot. I just walk for 10-15 minutes at a time, several

blocks. I have also been swimming ususally about 30 to 45 minutes, but

don't count distance there.

That's my story and I am sticking with it.

Dr. Bill,

WOW can I relate. I too am shopping out of my closet. My coworkers think I am

buying new things because they haven't seen them but they were things waiting,

waiting, waiting. I knew I would need them someday.
