Anybody from the Buffalo area???

Just wondering if anyone on here is from the buffalo area?

 me!! i just moved though so i am 'sort of' from the buffalo area.

Hi! I'm from Salamanca and we have the same doctor!I had my RNY surgery just over 3 1/2 years ago.If you want to talk,I'm plussizedsis on here.

Thanks!  How are you doing with your journey?  I'm am moving very slowly.  I kind of feel like I didn't get the information I really needed.  Everyone ther taked VERY good care of me.  I just feel like they could have prepared us more!
At least I have lost 50 pounds so far!

I'm doing pretty good.I have gained about 20 pounds since thanksgiving.A lot of stress in my life right now.I'm working on losing it.

Congratulations on losing the 50 pounds! I too lost weight slowly. At my first check up 13 days later,I lost 23 pounds,but after that it slowed down a bit.It took me about a year and a half to lose my weight.I lost a total of 148 pounds.10 pounds before surgery.When I talked to my heart doctor about losing weight slower than others,he told me its better to lose it slowly because it gives your metabolism a chance to catch up.

I really didn't know too much about the surgery either before I had it.I just knew I really needed to lose the weight and my doctor told me this would be the best way.
