Finally! A group I can identify with! I have been posting on the MO. site since I started, but it seems most of them have had their surgery a lot longer ago than me, and I feel I don't fit in to their group. I finally decided to put in my surgery date and found you all. My surgery date was June 13th. I have went from 292 (all time high weight)to 262 (day of surgery) to my current weight of 217. I am down 75 pounds! I have went from a size 28 to a size 18 and I feel great. My goal weight is 150 lbs. I have been looking at all your posts and I feel like I am going to fit in. Maybe it is because there are fewer people posting, I don't know. Anyway thanks for listening. Elisa

Welcome Elisa... I also find this board much more relevant than the others. I am not much for posting alot... and typically am too busy to post every day, but I try and get my daily reading in even if it is just before I head off to bed. I also like the fact that there are fewer people who are posting here, so it makes catching up much easier!!

Welcome Elisa! June 13th was my original date but the Drs office moved me to June 18th when we were finalizing my surgery. This is a great group.... Becky
