Hi all; I has a gastric bypass in June of this year I weighed 200 the day of surgery, current weight is 177.6 as of this morning. I had a lab band back in 2003 and in 2012 I had it removed due to GERD then the doctor plicated my stomach this caused even more problems. I had type 2 diabetes and high bp, and hypothyroid. The weight has been very slow coming off but it is coming off. I have had no problems so far.
Welcome! Glad to see you here and congratulations on your "new" surgery.

Welcome to our LW board!!! I'm so glad you were able to get the RNY after your problems with the band!! It's better the weight comes off slow. It gives your body time to adjust to this big change and you will have time to learn what works for you so Maintenance will be a breeze!
