Heyyyyyyyyyy, 

I'm scheduled for revision from Band to Bypass on the 29th.  I've been hanging out over on the Revision and RNY boards and someone suggested I might want to check out this board too. . . .so here I am 

I'm 5'4", 223 lbs now, and my goal is 125 lbs.  I lost 100 lbs with my Band before it stopped working, and gained 50 back over 3 1/2 years of terrible reflux, but originally had about 158 lbs to lose, so now I'm back up to needing to lose 100 lbs again.  I've lost some, I was 237 at my consult, but am down to 223 now with my preop diet so far.  I'm excited, am really looking forward to getting this Band out and having the Bypass! 

I've been an OH member for a while, but never really participated until recently.  I am enjoying being on the boards and making WLS friends!
