I had my surgery on April 11, 2008 and have been fighting to get into Onderland for a while now and once I was in it I made myself wait to post that I was actually in it since I can vary in weight throughout the day and in a week. I have been in onderland for a month now and I am down to 193.4!!!! It has been a bumpy ride at times but well worth it! At my highest known weight I was 447 and I now weigh less than the total weight I lost before and after surgery 253.4!
Thank you to Dr. Felts and his staff and all of the people in my life who have supported me. My goal weight is 165, which is still overweight but I am and will be a much healthier person. :-)
