Karola,

Thank you for the translation! You're smart to start trying to gain

weight now. I am 5'6 " and was 105 lbs a month before surgery and

started my valiant efforts then with little success. You have more

time which is good! I had no weight to spare so I went down to 95 at

one point and looked sickly and gross. But I am pretty much back to

normal now... I think I am getting fat because I've been eating all

this fattening food to compensate and yet my activity at the same

time has been so diminished due to lack of energy, so I am not

burning anything off!!! I am sure it will all get evened out

before long though. Take care- I hope you are well. Keep in touch,

Katja
