Hi Amy,
Congratulations on your next step in your journey. I had RNY 4/29/2015. I haven't made my goal weight yet but I've lost over 60 lbs since I started my WLS journey. In the last year I've had some gains. So, I'm reviewing my food journal (thanks to MFP) for the last year, my exercise habits, my sleep habits, to see what I need to change in order to get to me goal weight. I have no regrets in having my WLS and I've had no complications (thankfully). However, its still work to get the weight down and the exercise up. I wish you the greatest of success and healing. Don't push yourself too hard at first and don't create a lot of big expectations. It may be a month or more before you start to drop considerable amounts of weight. Rest and be good to yourself. Take the suggestions of your medical staff and you should be just fine. Fell free to friend me if you'd like.0 -
I had a 16 year old lapband to a gastric bypass on Sept 5, 2017 and I'm hoping this app helps me keep on track. I'm also looking for encouragement along this journey.0
