Topic: RE: Anyone about 5'1-5'3" and start at around230-250?
Hi Carrie,

I was 236 on the day of my surgery and in October I will be 3 years out.  I am 5'1" also and currently float between 110 and 114 lbs.  I still do not drink when I eat and pretty much stick to the original "rules".  I also go to the gym about 3 times a week, once I lost about 75 lbs I tried out the gym and loved it.

I do have pictures on my profile if you want to check em out.

Good luck and just think of stalls as red lights on your journey to the final destination because eventually the light turns green again, your body has periods where it just needs to adjust to the drastic weightloss.

Hi,

If you type in Recipes in the search window in the upper right side of this website, you will be see to the Recipes: Cooking and Baking forum.

Clueless about weight loss and weight loss surgery of any kind.

Hi everyone!
I wanted to know what other resources you use for recipes other than The world accourding to Eggface and Bariatric  Foodie blogs.

Is Hungry girl recipes an option?  Any other suggestions would be great!

Thanks and Have a great day

Hi Carrie. 
I started at 250# and am 5'1".  My surgery I had RNY on May 27th and as of today have lost 17 pounds if my scale is correct.  Tomorrow I see my surgeon for the post op appointment.  It was so amazing to see the numbers go down on the scale so fast.  I kept thinking that it just couldn't be right!  I haven't started posting photos yet, but I will get around to that.  I'm still having difficulty navigating this darn website!  It's so complicated.  Anyway, I am sure by now you have achieved even bigger success.  
Best of luck!  Let's keep each other posted.  You can friend me if you would like.

Hello,

I have spoken to  a few folks who were pleased but it has been awhile.  As long as he was trained by Dr. Rutledge, you should be ok.

Topic: Mini GBS in Costa Rica

Has anyone had surgery with Dr Carlos Quesada in CR? If so,  can you tell me more about your experience? I am having a hard time fidning much information about him or other patients who had him for mini GBS, but his references are excellent and he's board certified in the US. However, I want to make a good decision.
Thanks! Christina
