hello....how is everyone else doing?

just wondering how all the other june 2001 "babies" are doing... {{hugs}} kate

My date was June 11, 2001. I am great, done to normal weight and loving the new me.

Doing Great and loving Life!! I'm holding steady at 122-125 and wering a size 4/6. I, too, am pretty serious about my exercise and weight training. I work at a gym and workout one to two times per day. Best of luck to you all!! Ciao and Hugs, Victoria in Italy

I'm ok, i'm going through some ruts, feeling like what i've lost is not enough. I've lost 80 pounds. I think everyone goes through it though. I just keep pulling out the pictures of the old me and know that that person is not the one I am today!

I am doing GREAT!!! I've lost 135lbs altogether and I am wearing 8/10's. I would love to have everything lifted and tucked but that's not going to happen anytime soon, but I still love the new me. I can't believe that it's been almost 2 years, I had surgery on the 26th of June. I tell everyone that I would do it all over again and that it's the best thing I ever did for myself. God Bless everyone and take care. Deb James

Well, I am experience weight regain. I have gained about 10-15 lbs back and it might as well be 100. I feel like crap. My clothes are getting tight and I know that I need to quit eating junk and grazing. I also have gotten into the alcohol and need to quit that.

I know that this post was written some time ago but i am having the same problems as you are. So If you read this please get in touch with me. [email protected]

Hi, I'm doing well. I've lost a total of 110 and have recently been pushing and am losing again. Slowly, but still able to lose like "normal" people do! I went from a size 34/36 to a size 16/18. I'm glad I had the surgery, and I'm glad to know that I'm still capable of losing weight. At the time I had the RNY, I was told that there w

Heading towards my two year anniversary on 6-19-01. I have stabilized at 155 from 266 and am okay with that. Would I love to be one of the ones who got to 135 or 145..yes, but I still count my blessings. In my clothes, I look great and most people are surprised to hear what I used to weigh and that I had the surgery. I know I would lose about 5-10 pounds with plastics, but was denied by Aetna at 12 months post-op, but will probably try again. I feel so lucky and healthy! No complications and all blood work has always been excellent. Thanks for asking the question!

I am 2 years post today!!! I've lost a total of 141lbs and I LOVE MY LIFE!! I am lucky that i am a tall person.. i look decent at the weight i am (229) and very happy here! (started at 370) I had a tummy tuck done in november and had two hurnias repaired..other than that, it's been smooth sailing! I too struggle with a couple of lbs up down, up down, but that's about it.. i am an avid excersiser and biker now! (last weekend i rode 15 miles to a friend's house, and tomorrow I plan on going 20 miles!) I have SO much self esteem and actually for the first time LOVE MYSELF! last year i was able to ride the roller coasters at six flags for the first time in my life! I would do this surgery a hundred times over.. it's made THAT big of a difference! Jessica thorn
