Lap RNY on July 13, 2001 and have lost 140 pounds. I am at my goal. It
has been a long road but worth every minute of it.

I had an open RNY on 7/17/2002 and have lost 126 pounds as of my last
support group meeting (12/14). I am now at 301 pounds. Soon to be back
down in the 200's for the first time in goodness-knows-when! JR

I was a so-called lightweight and my weight loss is much slower than many.
I had my Open VBG 9/10/02. I have lost about 43 lbs so far. BUT, I do cheat
at times. I probably would have lost more if I hadn't. I think I am back on
track, though!

Hi, I had my surgery on Oct 4, 2001. I started out at 267, went up to 271
and I am currently about 135. So I have lost 136 lbs. The road has had a
few bumps. But I have been pretty faithful to the diet. I do eat things I
am not supposed to. But when I do I eat low fat. Like peppermint patties,
charleston chews. Something that has a minimal amt of fat. Good luck and
God Bless.

Start weight was 310, height, 5'3", BMI 54.9, jeans size 32
tight.<br>
Current weight is 128, height, 5'4", BMI 22.0, jeans size 4
comfortable. :-)<br>
My Open RNY was 09/17/01, and I had 125 cm bypassed. Dr. Weber also took my
gall bladder out during surgery.<br>
I had my abdominoplasty at about 155 pounds, size 10/12, on July 22, 2002.
I think I've finally leveled out now, and I'm happy as a clam. My original
"wildest dream" goal was to weigh 150!
