- Thank you! I am scheduled for Wed. Oct. 14th and I am so excited to finally have that tool on my belt! :-) I am looking forward to a change in my life for the purpose of better health and physical well being.
I wish you the best of success Chris, and keep on track and follow the guidelines and you will do well. I have friends that have had it and gained their wight back because they didnt stay on the plan. I refuse to let myself get back to the weight that I am.

- About Me:
- Chris from South Jersey (31 years old) had Gastric Bypass on August 17, 2009. I was 392 at my highest in November 2008, 371 at time of consultation with surgeon in February 2009, and 341 at time of surgery on August 17th and I am now down to about 306 and as of today its been 1 month 23 days or 7 weeks. Major adjustment, but I think I'm headed in the right direction :).
