My beginning weight was 367...After 19 months I'm at my goal weight of 140
pounds.. I had the Fobi pouch with silastic band. I lost 100 pound by the
first 5 months.. I was on liquids the first 8 weeks, which, I feel
contributed for the greater weight loss early on..I'm no longer diabetic,
no longer on any blood pressure medication, no longer have sleep apnea,
no longer in congestive heart failure, the list goes on.... There is not a
thing I would have changed about my surgery or choice of surgeons, Dr.
Husted in Nashville, TN.. I can now eat anything I want, limited by my
pouch size thank goodness.. The pouch keep me under control.. Visit my
profile page for tons of information and my whole story..

I had open RNY April 17 and started at 389. A little over four months and
I am now at 299. A loss of 90 pounds!!! I am feeling great and can't wait
until more comes off. I have had no problems at all. I have never thrown
up and can eat anything. I do stay away from sugar and trying to watch my
carbs. Good luck and if you have any questions, email me.

I weighed 330 when I had my surgery on 2/14/01. I now weigh 248. I
already have lots more energy, no sleep apnea, no high blood pressure, etc.
It's the best thing I ever did. I'm buying in-line skates this payday. I
cried tears of joy when I got my approval. I'm 32 and I just wish I had
had it done when I was only 27. I wish you the best of luck.

Well, I was 27 years old, 5'8 when I had my surgery 9/28/00. I started at
350 lbs and I am now 195 after 10 months. I lost the first 100 in 5 months
and I am getting my tummy tuck next week. I have a huge apron and I am
hoping that it will take off about 20 pounds. Please email me I would love
to talk more to you. I also have pictures on my profile.

I was 27 when I had my RNY on April 18, 2001. It is August 23, and I've
lost 63 pounds so far. It is just melting away. I am a lot more energic
now - even joined a gym for the first time ever! I'm more confident. My
clothing size has dropped two sizes! You will do great!

I am 5' 8" tal and 53 years old. I am 1 year post-op and have lost
134 lbs. I had an open RNY and had no significant problems. My weight
loss would be greater if I got in more water and exercise. I am currently
working on this. Have about 60 lbs to go before goal.

Krissy, I am 37 and was 398 pounds on 4/13/01 the day of my surgery. Here
I am today 4 1/2 months later and I am down 114 pounds to 284 pounds. Next
to my wife it is the best decision I have ever made. Best of luck on your
surgery.
