Hello everyone!

New here today

I had VGS surgery in Portland, Oregon on October 25, 2016. I am 64 years old and will be 12 weeks post op this coming Tuesday. I have lost 43.5 pounds so far.

I try my best to be a helpful and forthright member of any community I am a member of, alas it doesn't always work out.

Word in the online weight lose community is that, if you can coddle someone who eats a grilled cheese sandwich 2 days post op, then this is the place to come.

Welcome to the forum! After you've been here for awhile you'll see there are many varied opinions & posting styles. Some won't coddle people & some will keep it real, but what is said on one end can be heard differently on the other. There have been plenty of but I came here for support complaints, but support doesn't come in the way the op may want to hear, a post goes way left & poof a block appears or they leave the board.

Hope you'll stick around. I hear there's was a lot of drama on the bp site.

No one surgery is better than the other, what works for one may not work for another. T-Rebel

Maybe back in 2008 prior to my surgery. There was a lady on here who was struggling, very heavy, but made sure she took - God, I think it was - 2 hours to eat a hot dog and bun on her son's birthday. This was shortly after the surgery. First three months at the most. I wonder what happened to her?? Of course, I always wonder about what happens to people who don't deal with the mental part of it...

Me, I just got drunk.

I'm sober now, and here losing my beer gut!!!
