WOW I did not realise just how long it had been sence I was even on this site.. haha I noticed that somewhere the July 2003 site was gone.. and it took me like 20 times trying to sign in sence I could not remember my sign in name or the password !! I am post op now 28 months.. I have been at NORMAL BMI now sence my 2 year check up .. I had my surgery done by Dr. Brown in Denver Colorado, and he fallows his patients for 5 years !! One of the best programs that I had ever found.. The only problem I have struggled with is What do you do once you finally hear those words, You are Normal ?? I mean it wasn't like I could all of a sudden return to the way I proceeved foods pre op, it wasn't like I could change the way that I was eatting or exerciseing.. Everything I had done to get to the point to hear those words, are a rountine in my daily life, I struggled with what do I do now ?? where do I turn ?? Where do I belong ?? it seemed like the groups I was on online now I really did not need to go to, those were for those trying to get surgery, or struggleing to get to goal .. and when I would post to someone about thier struggle they would return and say well what do you know about this struggle you are at goal.. I think it would be nice to form a group somewhere for those at goal, and trying to deal with daily life post op.. Friends, family, class mates,how now at goal how do we deal with older friends that reject us.. turn their backs on us.. talk about how we are now trying to educate others about not making their kids feel as though cleaning their plate and becomeing over weight .. Just a thought I guess .. if any of you have any Ideas please feel free tp post.. Audrey

There is a site here for people who have been post op for a while. I think it's called WLS Grads. It's for people like us who have a different set of issues to deal with. You may find it helpful and just what you are looking for. Good Luck! Charlie
