I love posts like this!! 1.  First name or name you go by on the boards - Skinny inside, because at the time I joined, I felt like a skinny person trapped in my big body. 2.  Surgery type - open rny 3.  Surgery date - 7/27/05 4.  How far post-op - 1 year, 7 months 5.  Highest weight - 282 6.  Day of sugery weight - 282 7.  Goal weight - 150 8.  Current weight - 147 9.  Low weight post-op if different than current weight - 146 10.  Biggest struggle as a post-op - My biggest struggle currently is watching what I eat because even when it seems I'm eating a lot of junk, the scale doesn't punish me (I go from 146 - 148) - I guess I'm still malabsorbing, but I know this will not always be the case.  I have to work on the "mind" issues behind the eating.
