Well this is a new site for me but I had my surgery April 22,2010 and have been very successful, I went from 393 pounds 3 weeks before surgery to 330 day of surgery and currently I am 202. Need to find the drive to get to my goal witch is 170 anyone have any ideas and good meals or exercise programs that work.. I fluctuate between 195-202 for last couple months .. Time to find a good group to help drive me to my goal weight !!!
