Yesterday I went for my year post op check...albiet a month late. My surgeon is so pleased with my results he called me his poster child for weight loss! My labs came back excellent, the only thing I'm a little below norm on is Vitamin D. So he has me taking it 1x week for 8 weeks and then 1x a month thereafter. Oh yea...he took me off the HBP meds I've been on since I was 22! That's 22 years of taking blood pressure meds. I have been maintaining @146 a 100 lb loss, for 4 months. He said very few of his patients do this before 18 months post. My personal goal was for 135--I only picked this number because my older sister weigh's 135 @ 5'5"...but I wear a smaller size than she does...Yippee Skippee I love my RNY and couldn't have gotten here without all of your support. Hugs, Jen

Good for you!!! Isn't it a thrill to find out you are healthy and getting to start your life all over again. The vitamin D thing seems to plaque most of us, but I understand it is a common problem for everyone. Keep up the good work. You look absolutely wonderful. Alice
