I had my surgery March 4th and am now down 75 pounds. The amount of energy I have is so much better than pre-op, it is amazing! I've been exercising (pool walking) for about 6 weeks now and really am starting to enjoy it. I have a very long road to go yet but I try not to dwell on it and just do what I can for today. I truly believe that the surgery saved my life. Every one is doing so great! Keep up the good work!

I had my surgery on March 4th, I am down 34lbs as of this morning. I live in Australia and the ideas here are a little different from what i read on this site. I would love to hear from any other March people Jane Moss

Hey there. I had open rny at Bariatric Treatment Center in Wylie with Dr Julie Leverton on March 7th. Well in 9 weeks, I am down 71lbs. I started out at such a high weight that the loss is not really noticable yet (414). I am starting to feel stronger and have started working out this week. I find it hard to drink water all day long. I just pray I can lose 199 more pounds. I wish you well.

Hey March WLS's! I'm 7 weeks Post-op and I am at the half century mark. I cannot believe I have lost 50 lbs in just 7 weeks! This surgery really works! It's been a rough journey to get this point, it has not been easy at all, I am still trying to get used to the chewing, I have to chew chew chew, otherwise I pay the price, it's all worth it with the results though. I feel so good now and my energy level has shot up! I would have never thought in a million years that I would be able to lose this much weight so quickly. Thank god for those protein shakes, they really do the trick. Thanks to this site and all the support I have received, I have gotten through it and hopefully I will reach my goal someday. How has this surgery changed your life? hope to here from some of you soon! God Bless!
