1st convention

Hi, I'll be attending my 1st convention all day Saturday and hope meet a lot of "new" friends. I am 18 months post-op and doing great. Down 135 lbs, walking fine ( arthritis and weight had me in a wheelchair ) and feeling like a new person. The surgery (and Dr. Brolin ) has changed my life and all who are waiting or have just gone through with it should know how great the furture will be! Looking forward to tomorrow, Jack

Hi Jack- I wish I was going too but I'm stuck doing mandatory overtime all weekend Make sure to update us about the day! I'd love to hear all about it! Congratulations on your success! Isn't Dr. Brolin wonderful??? The medical assistants always laugh when I come in because I make "grumpy dr. brolin" smile everytime I go in for a visit Have a great day tomorrow -Janine

So Jack, what's the verdict? Was it worth it? All the best, Lauralyn RNY (lap) 2/13/03 @ size 3X Today @ size 8!
