Hi my name is Joy and I am new to this Board. I have posted some in the MN boards but thought this board made a lot of sense since I had my surgery on October 18. i have been lurking for a few days and think you are a great group of people. I am a type I diabetic and was basically told by my diabetic doctor that I had to have this surgery or I could die within the next ten years at the rate that I was gaining weight and my bodies iinsulin resistance. So here I am on the losing side and doing a-okay. I will start with my stats: Starting weight:215 Starting BMI: 38.1 Weight now:193.5 Height:5'3" Desired weight:120-130 Your lowest weight ever and when:120 in my late teens after losing 65 pounds

Thanks so much Celia. You seem like such an inspiration to the group. I am sooo happy to be under 200 pounds and am still surprised every time I get on the scale as it keeps moving down. You'll be there before you know it. Wishing you continued success. Hugs Joy
