Hi:

I am a Newbie (pre-op) and from the S. Shore.  I have been an avid "watcher" of this site for many months.  I do not have a date set yet, however, I was wondering if anyone has any other WLS other than RNY or lapband? 

Thanks for all your helpful advice to date.

Welcome!

I had an RNY, so I can't offer you info beyond that, but wanted to say hello!

Thanks for the welcomes and I hope to find out soon when I will be having the surgery.  I'm sure you will all be sick of the numerous questions!!!  Thanks again.

Welcome !! I had RNY - I think in MA - RNY and the lapband are covered much easier so I think for the most part that's what you will find here !!

As far as questions - well NOPE we won't get sick of them - this is what we do !! ASK away !

 Highest (that I know of) 285  Weight when I started the process 277
Night before surgery 263
  Goal weight 160
