Looks like the end of April for me.

I have been going through this WLS surgery process since June of 07 when I made my appointment with my doctor.  In June I was 385 lbs.  At my initial consult with Dr Randall I was 375 lbs.  Yesterday I went to see him and I am now 351.  He told me that I am progressing very well and after compleating the I Can Change Program that Tuffts require it looks like I will have surgery around the end of April  I hope by surgery that I will be about 340.  I am so looking forward to having this life changing surgery and becoming a BIG LOOSER.  As I check the profiles of all of you I am amazed how WLS surgery has changed your appearence and reading your blogs how it has changed the quality of your lives.  I can't wait to experience the new me. Thanks for all of the great information that you all post on this site. JIM

I wish you the greatest success.  I wish WLS had been a viable option when I was your weight.  Most insurance just wouldn't cover it as recently as 15 years ago.  You are doing great so far and you look like you will be a big looser.  Keep us posted on your progress.

Great progress so far Jim.   Best of luck with the surgery.   Which one are you considering?

Thank you for your support.  I am having the Open RNY.

Jim, Sounds like you are making great progress. Have you ‘hooked up’ with the Boston Bunch" Doug-(lost in the Net) JoAnn, Jane, etc??? You are in the midst of a awesome support group In the Boston Area. I hope to meet up with many of them again next summer. Keep up the great work. April will come and go before you know it. Best Wishes- Dx

Oh yeah,   I meet up with the Best Bunch In Boston at my 1st meeting, and we hit it off right away.  Infact Doug just gave me a bunch of clothes for my journey. Dx your reputation preceeds you.  I have heard a lot about you and look forward to meeting you this summer. Thanks to all. JIM
