I had my surgery Oct 4th, 2002. My whole life has changed. I started at 276 the day of surgery (size 26), lost 10 prior and am down to 145. I wear sizes 6's and 8's and have never in my life worn these sizes. I feel wonderful and am in the best shape I've been in in years. I had my tummy tuck in July and love the results. I've met the man of my dreams and after 44 years am finally getting married!!!!!! My kids love him, and he loves me scars, saggy skin and all. Life is just beginning for me!!!!

I had my Open RNY in Fargo with Dr. Howell on October 4, 2002. I started around 260, I'm now 133. It's AMAZING what we can do, isn't it? Sometimes, doesn't it seem like it's a stranger looking back at ya in the mirror? I'm still having a hard time seeing that this really is me ... this person at a size 4 or 6 ... who used to be a 26/28 ... Really, now ... is that me? Are you sure? lol Anyway ... I'm proud of all of us for getting there and being healthy. Any questions I can help with, feel free. Peace @}-------Shanna

WOW...you guys have all done phenomenal!!! I'm a real snail compared to the rest of ya!I had surgery 10/09/02, started @ 350 lbs & am currently @ 242 lbs, for a total weight loss of -108 lbs. Still have a long "weigh" to go till I reach goal. Would like to lose @ least another 60-70 lbs. I've been a slow loser from the very beginning. As long as I keep losing, even if it is slow, I'll be happy. May take me more like 18 mos-2 yrs post-op to reach my goal @ the rate I lose, but I'll get there eventually! Great job to all of you! Can't believe I'll be 1 year post-op already in about 2 1/2 weeks!!! How time flies! Take care, Jamie in FL =0)

Topic: RE: 10 months out the 22nd, new P.O. for tummy tuck/hernia repair
Wow, that is so cool. I mean not the fact that you had a hernia, but the fact that you got to get a tummy tuck. I don't mean to be laim, but what does the tummy tuck feel like. Are you really sore? I myself am 10 months out and have gone from 245lbs to 126lbs. Even with exercise I have alot, I mean alot of excess skin on my arms, tummy,and thighs. I have been seriously considering plastic surgery, but as you know it cast mucho money. So I will probably have one thing done at a time. Please let me know about your surgery and your recovery time from the tummy tuck. Thanks
