You'd don't have to "join" you can always post anywhere you think you'll get support/answers. Saying that - I would say you're a weightloss surgery grad! Great job.

Hi 1hipmom,

I had my surgery about a month before you. I also down around 140lbs. I started out at 301lbs. So I would say we have done about the same. Doesn't it feel so good! You are definitely a graduate. I pray you continue to have a healthy and successful journey!!! By the way I can not tolerate sweets either.
