I joined OH exactly a year ago and I'm a few weeks shy of being 9 months post-op.  Woo!  I hope to be an old-timer eventually since I'd like to stick around OH.

Since dinosaurs roamed the earth.

I had surgery in Dec. of 2003, and I joined about 4 months before that, so I've been here nearly as long as you have, Bette!

So far, Lady Tazz has the record for longest time here. A DUBIOUS record, but still . . .

I don't know when I joined this site, but have watched it since I had my by pass the summer of 07.  Still feeling wonderful, and still wondering why I didn't do it sooner.LOL. 140 lbs lost, no, kicked out...

I joined in early 2011.  Got sleeved shortly after that.  Over 3 years out I am holding within 10 pounds of my initial weight loss low.  It has been, and still is, a TON of hard ass work.  But I wouldn't change my decision to have surgery.

I started lurking in November 2013, joined and had surgery in December 2013.

I read every day but don't always post, particularly on the open forums.  Too much redundancy.   I prefer the private group that I belong to since it's far more open and informative.   Rarely do we discuss stalls or "I hate my protein shakes" on a daily basis.
