Gastric Bypass Surgery Support Group
Gastric bypass (GBP) is any of a group of similar operative procedures used to treat morbid obesity, a condition which arises from severe accumulation of excess weight in the form of fatty tissue, and the health problems ("co-morbidities") which result. If you are considering gastric bypass or have had it, join the community where we share our experiences and find support.
I find this hilarious: all my pants are now too long! I was taking up in width what I didn't need in length. As each pair starts dragging on the ground, I wash and retire them. Luckily I have my own closet to shop from, I have saved clothes from the last 8 years or so that I had outgrown so for now I still don't have to buy anything. But it's fun when I put pants on and they puddle on the floor. It's like being a kid in Mom's clothes!
I'm only out 10 days and just this morning I noticed what used to be a large roll is now a smaller roll with an extra crease in it! According to my scale I have lost 20 pounds. I will find out tomorrow, for sure, when I see my Surgeon.
Happy for you. You go girl!!
I also saved allll my old stuff, in bins under my storage. I have only one bin left. In 15 lbs, I'll be the same size that I was when we moved in this house as almost newlyweds :)
Awesome :)
Blessings,
