Roll call! Raise your hand and be counted.
I am Kelly, my bmi was over 60 when I started ( I think...) I am finally under 300 pounds and that is exciting. But most of all, I can walk , exercise, and don't take any more medications. WOO HOO!
I had my surgery a little over seven weeks ago, have had no complications so far. Would do it again in a heartbeat!

Hi!
I am Mandy. I am actually 6 days out. I had laparscopic rNy done on june 30th. I am 28 years old and have two beautiful girls, tianna is 7 and taylor is 4. I have a great fabulous husband. We have been together since high school.
The day that I came home from the hospital I weighed 335 and this morning, 219.8! YAY ME! I am on the clear liquids still until tomorrow then to full liquids for another week. Will I gain some weight after i am able to be on soft foods or real foods? (Or people food as my four year old says :) )
I am trying to get a whole profile thing set up on here, trying key word. For now I just play around and post around :)
Love to you all

Haven't been around in a long time!
Started at 374, am down to 225 and still losing. Currently sitting at about 35 BMI.
I still work out with a trainer 3X per week and do cardio 2-3 times a week as well. Have moved to running the stairs at work for my cardio now.
I have a plastics consult this Wednesday and am excited to see what he has to say.

Howdy,
My name is Patti.
It took me three years, three insurance companies, three different PCPs, a six-month supervised diet and a 5-month delay because my medical group is peopled with idiots (There are some great people -- but you have to get through the iggits to get to them). I finally went in and got my RNY on April 3, 2009.
So far, I'm down 70 pounds from my initial consult with the surgeon. My beginning BMI was 60.8, and I just broke the 50 barrier -- down to 49.8. My next goal is to break into the 200s. 18 pounds to go!!!
I have a wonderful hubbie and a skinny 3-year-old daughter (takes after her Dad, thank God!). My mother will be 76 soon and she has all sorts of health issues that keep me occupied. I also work full time and live in the middle of nowhere -- it has a zip code -- 93501.
Good luck on your journies!!!
