:( So sorry to read this. Condolences to the family and all those touched by this radiant soul.

Thank you. Nothing like what you've been dealing with but pretty miserable by my standards!

LW 152.0 TW 148.9 Add me to the bad news/good news camp this week. Deathly ill for days with a high fever and really extreme diarrhea. Thought I had food poisoning from Wed night's sashimi dinner. Maybe, but it really hung on. We had an out of town wedding this weekend so I had to travel and...

Dr Bonnani did my (virgin) DS 19 months ago and I can't say enough good things about him. One of the things I appreciate most is that he welcomes informed and well researched questions and debate. He doesn't have that 'I'm the doctor and your not' mentality at all. He takes as much time as you...

Yay! Congrats!!

Hello and welcome @cchall!! I also have a 100 cm DS and it was definitely one of the best decisions of my life! Only regret is waiting so long to go for it...

Actually, this is what pi**es me off the most!! I don't mind people holding doors for me now or smiling more and being nicer, or even falling over themselves to get my attention. Its them finally noticing that I have a brain, when it's been there all along and we couldn't have accomplished half...

LM 153.0 TW 152.0 Finally at home this weekend so I have access to my scale. One pound down in a month so things have definitely slowed down now at 19 months post-DS. Exercising much more now so that may have something to do with it?? In a solid size 6/small in most things these days, though...

I have 2 bottles in my pantry. If you PM me your address, I'll be happy to mail them to you. My labs have been consistently high for iron so Dr told me a while ago to stop taking it so they're just sitting here. May as well go to someone who can use them... 'Sundown Naturals Perfect Iron'...

I did Adkins-like high protein/low carb for 4 weeks, then protein shakes and veggies for 2 weeks, then all liquids for another week. Got used to it but it was not fun! Post surgery was also restrictive - 4 weeks liquids, 4 weeks puree (blended meat - never again!), then gradually introducing...

Welcome @Lisa Gemmel. I'm also in PA - closer to Philly.

LW 153.0 LW 152.9 Still barely budging the scale but feeling good. I see Dr. Bonanni's PA on Wednesday for my 18 month followup so we'll see what they think. Its warming up here in the northeast so finally feels like Spring! Meeting friends in a few minutes for a bike ride. Have a great week...

Yep. Got mine drawn yesterday so looking forward to seeing where things are now...

Welcome @A Dixon! You'll find a wealth of quality information and genuine support here. Looking forward to following your journey.

...and those of us to absorb too much! I stopped supplementing iron after my initial set of labs and it's still off the charts high. We're all different...

What Larra said...! At 2 weeks out I was still on liquids. Maybe try a bit slower and a bit less and pay attention to how you feel before proceeding. You'll find what works for you!
