Newbie to the board
Hey everybody,
Just thought Id drop in to see what this forum is all about,You can say I am new to this board.
I myself had my surgery on Dec.12th.I had my surgery done in Sedalia,Missouri by Dr.Horbostel who I thought gave me a new life as we speak.He is a heck of a surgeon and if I had a choice would do it all over again.
Well, Anyways on my surgery date I was at 412lbs and now I am at 308lbs a little over a 100lbs loss,I wish I could say I do my excersises but I havn't due to back problems,so all this weight I've lost is due to eating very little as I dont really care for it like I used to.I do eat a bowl of salad in the morning and a couple of tamales in the Evening, Everyday like clockwork,Oh' and a protein shake in the morning and one at night. I am still trying to eat other meat but just cant,It just doesn't go down to well,so I don't even try anymore not for a long while.
Well,enough babbling about myself,now I found others who had their surgery around the same time as me,thats just awsome.I will for sure add this to my favorites so I can come in everyday to say hi...So hi everyone!!!

Hey Tony,
Over 100lbs..........awesome. I hear you on the excersise. I get out and walk a couple times a week. I have been able to eat meat. I stay FAR away from any types of carbs....except whats in my milk. Have to have my fat free milk for my protein shake. I have been tracking all my intake on fitday.com. A very cool site. I had my surgery on Dec 19th. So I am just over 3 months out and have lost 63 lbs. I still find that so amazing. I too am very thankful to my surgeon that he gave me such a wonderful tool. I bet you feel so much better with just the 100+ lbs gone. Just think of how it will be 18 months out. I am still in awe of this surgery. Sorry now I am babbling. Congrats and welcome to the Dec board. Here's to more weight loss and getting healthy.

I do feel a little lighter since I've lost some weight,but my back seems to have gotten worse,you would think it would be a little better but nope it isn't.
Okies, I better go pick up my son from School but you keep up the awsome job hun and Godbless.
