Guest guest Posted October 20, 2000 Report Share Posted October 20, 2000 I'm sorry , I haven't had surgery yet, or I would most certainly help you out. There are plenty of people a part of this group tho. that has, just request that one of them contact you, okay? Good luck, Trudy MGB Hi, my name is . I am 23 years old and I weight 235 lbs. and have been over-weight for most of my life. When I found out about this surgery, I thought this is too good to be true, but I found it also takes a lot of hard work on your part too. I am hoping to get approved for the " Gastric By-Pass " , but I have to get an appointment to see Dr. Rutledge first. The only way I can do that is with your help. If you could be so kind as to send me an e-mail explaining how you feel about the surgery you had, what it was like when you came home, how you feel about it now, and would you have it again, I would really appreciate it. Thank You For Your Help, Carroll P.S. Please help me as others helped you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted October 20, 2000 Report Share Posted October 20, 2000 , I'll be glad to help you out. I feel this surgery was the best thing I ever did for myself. I wake up each morning feeling thankful that there are no more diets and that I don't have to battle with food and gaining weight any longer. It is a little difficult at first knowing that you cannot sit down and eat a huge meal as before. After all for a lot of us food was our crutch and comfort. It has been almost three months now and I have lost 40 lbs and feel great. I would most definitely do it again tomorrow if necessary. I walk 2 or 3 miles each day now and actually enjoy it. My energy level is wonderful. If I can answer any more questions for you, you may email me at deno33 @ tgtel.com (without the spaces). Good luck. Kay Deno MGB > > > Hi, my name is .
