Hello Everyone, This is my first posting. I had my surgery on May 9. I weighted in at 296. Now I weigh 236. I have reached a slow down time which is okay. I'm wearing clothes I have not worn in a few years. I like this.

Hi Adonna and congrats on your surgery! I had my RNY on 31May...and I too am on a slow down now. Not stand still just veeeeery slow. It's annoying but hang in there. Congrats on the getting back into the smaller clothes! YAHOO! Hugs! Shele

welcome to the May messageboard. I had my surgery on May 8th and have gone from 264 to 208. I have stalled over the last few days a well. People say that this is when the body says wait... I need to catch up so u may not see the scale drop but the inches will be going down. at least I hope. bookmark us and stay in touch

Welcome Adonna, Congratulations on your amazing weight loss. Keep in touch here, everyone has been so friendly and supportive of each other. It is nice to have a group of friends who are going through the same phases of this WLS. Hugs, Darlene
