hi open ryn may 16 113 pounds lost cant find any pants to fit.boohoo. would not do this again.

Why wouldn't you do this again? Explain if you would, it is good to get both sides of this.

where do i begin? frist everything rurpture 2 days after surgery...so i had to have the surgery all over again. i cant keep solid foods down because of this. i throw up all the time. my whole body hurts. is this enough?

i need to add that i was 51 years old at the time. in poor health. had 3 heart attacks at 40. 2 back surgeries. if i was to do again, i would do it when i was younger.

Shelly D. Post-Op 9/18/03 47lbs as of Nov. 8-have a phobia of the scale so I only weigh in when I go to the doctor. RNY-lapo
