Hello All!

My name is Aliya, and I had my surgery in May of 05, I'm doing fabulous. I just wanted to stop by and say hey because my mother just got a surgery date of 02/28/06, and if you guys are anything like my May board, you all will be her second family. She should have a profile up and running by the end of the weekend. Her name is Denise, and I hope you guys all drop by and say hello. To all of those newly post ops, Congratulations, and it does get easier! Take Care! Aliya

Just wishing your mom the best I will keep her in my prayers. How have you been doing since your surgery. Sherri

Hey Sherri, I have had my ups and downs. I started at 260, and today I am 175. I can eat about 6 ounces at a time, and I feel great. It has truly been a lifestyle change. How are you doing? This is probably the hardest week.

Your mother will be in my thoughts as she makes her journey to become a healthier person. I began mine on the 6th and have been doing good so far!!!! I will keep track of her and look forward to reading her profile. Congrats on your weight loss and tell your mother she will be just fine! Hugs, Kennie

Thanks for the shout-out Aliya Love Mom
