Hi my name is Danny. I am 36 years old. I had Gastric Bypass surgery on July 3, 2012. I have lost 290 lbs but have fell off the wagon as of lately. I have fallen back into some old habits like eating bread and sweets. I could really use a mentor that has been post op for several years. I would love to have someone to help hold me accountable and help me get back on track. All help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hi my name is Danny. I am 36 years old and I am from Southeast Georgia. I had my wls on July 3, 2012. My highest weight was 527 lbs. My current weight is 235 lbs. I am so happy but so unhappy at the same time. I am a Christian therfore I don't do the bar scene. So I have found it very difficult to meet singles and date. I am very active in my local church but there are no singles there my age. I could use some advice and would love to meet some singles on this site if there are any? Feel free to inbox me and thank you for taking the time to read my post. By the way on a positive not I recently published my first book title "Half the man I used to be with twice the Heart." I thank you for reading my post and look forward to hearing back from all of you!

I am 2 years post op as of July 3rd. I started my journey at a weight of 527 lbs. I now weigh 213 lbs and am feeling blessed. Wishing everyone the same success.

Congratulation on your loss and new lease on life wishing you continued success just remember stick to the basic healthy habits.

I am from southeast Georgia and I am one year post op and have lost 263 lbs.

Hi my name is Danny Coleman and I had my surgery on July 3, 2012. I have now lost to date 245 lbs. I can hardly believe it but I am so excited. I am looking to meet some new RNY friends. Please drop me a message or reply to this post. I would love to get to know you guys better.

Hi my name is Danny Coleman and I am 33 years old. I have been obese my entire life for as long as I can remember. I began my weight loss journey at the weight of 527 lbs. I still do not understand how I was able to carry that much weight around everyday. I had the Rny Surgery done on July 3, 2012. I spent one night in the hospital and got to come home on July 4, 2012. What a holiday I declared my independence from this life of obesity. I am almost one year post op and I am now weighing in at 279.8 lbs and feeling so much better and healthier. I have recently rejoined the gym and working out 7 days a week and loving it. I am so happy I made the decision to have Rny and would recommend it in a minute because this has been the greatest decision next to accepting Jesus as my personal Saviour I have ever made in my entire life.. God bless you all I look forward to getting to know you all.

I know what you mean I too have the tailbone pain. But I just deal with it is great to actually know it is there for a change Congrats on your success I wish you nothing but the best and may God bless you.

I completely agree with you God is so good! I started out my journey at 527 lbs with a size 70 waist wearing a 6X shirt and now I am down to size 50 waist and 3X shirt. Praise God! To God be the glory!

I was able to wear a size 50 dress pants today. This is a huge milestone for me as I started out at size 70 in the waist. I am so super excited.

Hey guys My name is Danny. I am 33 years old and I had the RNY surgery on July 3, 2012. This has proven to be the greatest decision I ever made in my life. My highest weight was 527 lbs and I now currently weigh 302 lbs and am still losing. I am so excited. I made this post to introduce myself and to find out more about you guys. So please feel free to share your stories here. Thanks guys and God bless you all!

Do not give up! It will get better! The beginning is the hardest part. I will echo what others have said though Protein is necessary. So do whatever you have to do to get it down. You will be grateful that you did. I have seen the good and the bad of this surgery. And those who do not do their protein does not have good results. So please heed our advice and force the protein down. I had to stay on all liquids for 7 1/2 weeks so I can testify to the difficulty of it. But I made it through and now I am 7 months post op and doing great. Hope this helps. God bless you!

I don't know how far you are from Augusta but Augusta has a great group of Doctors for RNY.

My surgeon did not use drain tubes. So not not all patients have them.
