Hi, everyone!
I'm Anne, I'm 63, I had RNY 3 ¾ years ago. One of the best things I've ever done for myself especially with my health benefits. I love keeping up with my 10 grandchildren!
I have been maintaining at 123 lbs after losing 140 lbs.
I also have been here at OH since before my surgery, with a break for awhile about 2 years out. I owe so much to the education I have gotten here- right after surgery when I wasn't feeling too hot (nausea for 4 months my only complication), I read the various boards here going way back in time until my eyes fell out. I went on an OH sponsored cruise a couple of years ago which was a blast.
Glad and grateful to be here on this new forum!

Hi,
I am almost five years out form VSG surgery. I have been maintaining for the last 4.5 years within a ten pound window. Today I hit my low goal weight (again) and I am sure not for the last time as over time things change and I keep needing to make appropriate adjustments. VSG has been one of the best things I have ever done for myself and I have no regrets at all. Sometimes, I have silly random thoughts, that have nothing at all to do with VSG, and it will be great to have a place to share them. Beware, pictures of cute puppies, hats, shoes, and very serious perfume discussions could all end up here at strange hours of the day.
