happy to meet you all!!

Hi everybody, I have been reading the message boards since my surgery on May 11 and then it suddenly occurred to me that I too can join in!!! I am 62 pounds lost as of today and feeling great. I hope to get to know each and every one of you!!

Hello, fellow May 11th patient! I'm glad you've finally piped up! Nice to see you. Congratulations on your 62 pounds lost forever. Sounds like you're doing wonderfully! Julie

Thanks Julie! Yea, I am really surprised it took me so long to open up my mouth (I have always been so good about it!!)

Hi Lisa I'm also a May 11th person and am down 60 lbs!! Patti

Welcome, Lisa!!! This is a great group, so glad you joined in!! Michelle

Hi Michelle! I saw your profile and all your new pics. You are looking so good!!!!! I wish I had a good camera so I could put some updated pictures on mine. Maybe that should be my next investment!!! So glad to meet you though and your story is very inspiring!

Welcome Lisa, I too had my surgery May 11th, I am down 51 so far. This May board is the best! Cary

Welcome! I'm a May 12th baby, and I've lost 61 pounds as of today. I'm constantly amazed at the increased energy I feel. Glad to meet you and know of your success! ~Wanda

Hi I too am a May 11th date. I have also lost 61 pounds since surgery. But I have had lots of complications also. I had a blood clot in my lung and also had to have a chest tube where they drained 3 liters of fluid out of my chest. And just went through 6 days where nothing including water would stay in. They couldn't figuar that one out. But finally today I have been able to keep stuff in. So I am feeling better. So keep up the good work. Lisa
