     Welcome to our family.  If i can be of help just let me know.  God Bless everyone and take care.

Hi Im a new member and thank you for welcoming me! My name is Mary Dowland-Wing from the Twin cities, Minneapolis, MN I had my surgery on April 21st, and to date have lost a total of 90 lbs!! 90 lbs in 5 months! Probably a little more to date since I last weighed myself 2 wks ago. I started at 308 at my highest weight and now am down to as of last week, 218. I do want to get down to 130-135lbs, 73 lbs to go!!! that is what i should weigh according to my height which is 5'2. I am 46 soon to be 47 in November and have NEVER felt better in my life! My health is actually back on track thanks to the weight loss, my diabetes went away, sleep apnea went away, swollen legs and ankles went away and my fibromyalgia is soon to be on its way out or at least has gotten so much better thanks to my surgery. It actually saved my life!! I am so glad to find this website and this support group. Thanks, Mary Dowland-Wing [email protected]
