14 MONTHS POST OP

I can't believe how time flies! I had my open gastric bypass Dec. 4th 2002 and I have lost 188 pounds. Day of surgery I weighed 368 pounds, now I am at 180 pounds. I am only 20 pounds away from my goal of weighing 160. I feel great! I have so much energy. I hope everyone is having the same success I am. This is the best thing I ever did! I had my surgery at Alexian Bros. Medical Center in Elk Grove, Il. My surgeon was Dr. Peter Rantis Jr., he is the best. I am so grateful to him for giving me a better life. He is my hero.
