Update: AWESOME

Well, I had small bowel ressection on Feb 16, 2011, and I have gained 25 lbs, can eat everything and anything! This was by far the best thing I have ever done! I regret waiting for so long to get it done. I recovered in about 5 weeks, and I feel like I am in a new body. The down side is I have outgrown many of my jeans and some shirts are to tight! But I will deal with that, oh and my grocery bill has increased a little too much! I also was depressed before the surgery and I now have a great lookout on life. Just a sucsess story for me. Thanks, Billy.

:dance: YAY!!! I am soooo pleased for you!!! I will never get tired of hearing that someone is doing well. Long may it continue.

That's fantastic! Best wishes for a long remission!

That's great news!!!!
Enjoy this new feeling...just make sure you still take care of yourself! You don't want to push it too far & end up back where you were!

All the best!!! xo

Hey, BK! I am so happy for you. It really is quite a success.

Thanks for sharing this with us. :hug:

O, and I moved this thread to the Success Story section. Hope ya don't mind.

Hooray! Congratulations! I am so happy to hear you are doing so well.

I hope the good times keep on rolling!

I love to hear success stories. Hope you keep going well.

ika: HIP HIP HOORAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! May you enjoy remission--and keep it! So happy for you---isn't food awesome when it doesn't hurt and cause other issues? :dance: Dana

Yes, food is awesome, except for the 30 lb gain, but at least I still have my six pack! I can even eat seeds with no issues. Surgery changed my life, lets hope it will last for years!

It's going to be hard perhaps to make sure that six pack does not be come a barrel
