Congrats to you too then !!! This surgery is a godsend isn't it?? If you are referring to the 284/199/155 I just type them in - if I am answering multiple posts I will copy/paste Have a great day!~ Kia

Hi Dawn, I joined this board today. Surgery on 02/17/05 and lost 69 pounds so far but down 6 sizes and about 48 inches. I am glad to find a group that had the surgery the same time as me. Keep up the good work. Sarah

I am so grateful to read all of the postings. I am 69 pounds down since 02/17 and thought that I was failing "again" I have picked up the exercise in the past week and hope to lose another 10 pounds before seeing my doctor on the 16th for my 6 month check up. It is nice to hear from all of you that we are all in the same ballpark (ok, some of you are way ahead) but I hope to catch up. I am so grateful to sleep without my chest suffocating me, able to walk three miles and not feel like my feet are falling off, able to take three pills in the morning and vitamins at night instead of taking pills all day long (9 before). I guess I am feeling grateful today. Keep up the good work everyone - I really NEED your support. Sarah

I have lost 71 pounds so far! Our total is now 1161 pounds! Can you believe it! Diana

Thanks your turn is comming around the corner Kia
