1. Best wishes to your wife!
I am 7 weeks post op. Gastric Bypass also w/duodenal switch. I hope her recovery is uneventful, and that she does as well as i've done.

10. Hi Progmom!
VERY tiring :) but I got through it. I think what I found hardest was sitting for eight hours. I'm still fairly uncomfortable and today I WILL wear a sports bra!!!

Wow!

And you accompany her to operations?

It must be love.

8. good luck to your wife
illini,

I am 8 months post-op today, and feeling better than I have in YEARS. I'm 80 lbs. lighter and more active than I have ever been in my life. My sleep apnea is gone, so is my high blood pressure.

Here's hoping the same kind of positive results for your wife.

If you're interested in reading up on what sort of progess lies ahead for your wife, go to the message boards at www.obesityhelp.com. You'll see some folks there talking about what they're going through, what they're eating, how their weight loss is coming along, etc.
