I usually visit the Main board and the Texas board...but wanted to join in with people that started at the same time I did. Im Tess and I live in Lubbock Texas and Im married and have 3 boys ages 23, 19 and 7 yrs old. I also have one grandson and hes 4 yrs old. I had my surgery January 24th, 2005, I started at 365.6 and I am down to 280lbs so far. Im thrilled with this. I try to ride my bike...go to the gym...and walk as much as possible, not as much as I should, I must say. Im so thankful for this surgery, I get on the scale too much, but I dont let it get to me if it hasnt moved in a couple of days. Feel free to drop me an email if you would like to chat. Have a great day

Hi Tess and Welcome. We are surgery date sisters. You are doing fabulous with your weight loss. I have lost 60 pounds to date (forgot to do my weekly weigh in this morning). I need to work on my exercising and water intake then hopefully the weight loss will pick up again. Keep up the good work. Kim 286/226/150ish?

WELCOME! I am glad that you found us... this is the perfect place to get advice form those who are going through it at the same time! So post as many questions as you want girl! You are doing great so far and as the weight falls off it will become more and more easier to exercise. I am one of those patients who have become addicted to physical activity! I do so much now most of my friends think I am nuts! Even the morning after a wedding rehersal and late night party and a few hours before the wedding began I was out jogging in my friend's neighborhood! Hehehe... I am nuts! Good luck!
