Hi. I'm Lori, I'm 26yrs young & I live in Plymouth. I had my surgery done @ Portsmouth Regional Hospital in New Hampshire by the hand of the marvelous Dr. Gens.

I moved back home to Mass in March 2009 after a failed 7yr relationship (we were engaged & 6mo from our wedding). He had the surgery 8mo before I did, he changed A LOT & things just weren't the same, so we went our separate ways.

My profile is public, so you can see the awesome progress I've made in 2yrs! The pictures, I think, are crazy to look at. I went from 297lbs (size 26/28 jeans, size XXL tops) at my heaviest, to my current weight of 135lbs (size 6 jeans, size small tops)

I haven't really made any friends here in Mass, so if you're in the area & would like to make a former-fatty friend, send me a message :)

Hi Lori!

I live in Whitman and had rny surgery in April by Dr. Pecquex at St. E's.  She's the absolute best!  Welcome to the board.
                
Welcome Lori!  

I love NH too but I *really* love MA and hope you feel the same way.  Good for your for recognizing
a relationship that was not meant to be and for getting out.  That takes guts & wisdom!

Looking forward to your posts ...
