Topic: New to Everything WL

Hello! I am new to this site, however I can admit I have been ghosting and reading things on here for some time, I recently had my first appointment with my surgeon for gastric bypass and he said I was a good candidate. I have begun losing weight thankfully without little effort but I'm losing speed and would like a friend along this journey.  Just shoot me message at [email protected] and hope to hear from you soon!!

Hi Lynda,    THE EMAIL ADDRESS YOU GAVE IS NOT VALID SO I AM REPLYING HERE, SORRY NOT YELLING I TYPE IN CAPS, LOL

 

I do apologize for just now getting back to you. No excuse I do still hope you wish to be my pen pal.  

 

I would love to read from you your personal story about your journey to wls and everything after since you had it in 2003.

 

In a nut shell I had Gastric ByPass Surgery on  a Monday, August 22nd 2011.

 

I fought for my Life for a yr and a half.  I weighed 267lbs - 277lbs at time of surgery.  Super fast i got down to 145lbs.  That was bad because i looked like a skeleton.

 

I am healthier in many ways but struggling with my Nutrition and making exercise a priority.

 

I welcome any and all advice, tidbits and jokes and whatever serious or silly things you wish to share.

 

I will tell you more once you reply and we can keep corresponding to each other.

 

I hope you are having a great week so far, thanks for your message to me on OH.com.
