Just dropping by to say Hello!

I haven't posted in a long time!  :)  I have many of you as a friend on Facebook. 

Just wanted to give a shout out!  

I started at 273+ and now vary between 145-155.  If I creep up to 155, I low carb and increase my activity level, and usually stay around 150.  B4 I had the DS, I would have been happy getting to and maintaining 170-ish...   cannot imagine maintaining 150's.  Amazing....

I wanted to tell everybody that the DS rocks.  VSG DS, and nothing else.  :)

I miss you guys.  Helping 2 friends through the DS process, already helped 2 friends in the past..... 

:)

P.S. sort of upset that one of my friends went to Ikramuddin...   and he discouraged the DS, and my friend was told that she would poop every single time she ate, have diarrhea, and bad smelling gas.  ???????????????   What gives with Dr. I?

Any ideas?  

Does Dr. Ikramuddin do the DS? Is so maybe he is not the best at them?

 I thought Dr. I  proctored under Dr. Buchwald at U of M?
