Hi Everyone!

My name is Courtney and i used to be really involved around here and have become a super slacker lately! :( I am 25 and had RNY 4 years ago today at age 21! I am so much happier and healtier today and am more than thankful for this amazing tool! I was just curious who everyone is around here now and what stage you are in with your surgeries. I hope everyone had a wonderful 4th of july and please add me on facebook if youd like since im around there everyday! Love to all!

Whoa!  It's like twilight zone... Amy just suggested I pop over here and look at you.  Woot!!!

6.5 years out and going strong!!!   Stupid hypoglycemia, but hangin' in there with the foodstuff.

Ohhh yaaaa, Roux en y and a panni removal (anchor cut).

 Yay - Glad Jaci stopped by too.  I had a strange urge to pop back in for a visit too - I'm just a bad if not worse of a slacker - it's probably been more than a year since I've posted here and I used to live on these boards.  I'm going on 7 years out (RNY on 11/16/2005), maintaining at 140lbs since 2nd year out.  I feel the same way - blessed, thankful and healthy.

Girl, if it wasn't for you, I'd still be on other boards and forgetting this one.  I wonder if my surgery month/year board is active at all lol!

 it's always a ghost town around here lately.

i'm jen, and in september i'll be 2 years out from rny. i've been maintaining between 150-155 since around christmas time. i'd love to lose more but my body just seems comfortable here and doesn't want to drop anymore, and maintains with very little work.

 it's so frustrating! especially only being 5'0" i'm still straddling the line between obese and overweight, but definitely still better than a 49 bmi!

 stick to your surgeon's plan, exercise as soon as you feel up to it, and take as long as you can before adding back bread, rice, pasta, etc.

the exercising and adding back carbs later rather than sooner are two things i didn't do that i regret now.
