Hi All, I haven't posted for some time and just wanted to wish those of you waiting for surgery good luck. I am so glad I had my RNY done May 20 of this year. I'm down 110 pounds so far, and am off all of my medications. I have a ways to go to reach goal yet, but I know this time I will make it. I am down 7 sizes and wearing a smaller size now then when I married 21 years ago. It's so much fun to borrow clothes from my teenage daughter. Blue jeans even! I haven't worn zip up pants for many years. I never thought that would happen. I wish I had done this a long time ago.

Take Care, Diane/Estherville

That's awesome Diane! It gives hope to those of us new post-ops who feel like each month is an eternity and each pound will be the last we ever lose! I am already having fun trying on clothes off the rack that I LIKE instead of because it's the only one left in my size. Looking forward to hearing more from you! Michelle -6wks/-42#/-13.5"+
