I stumbled on to this site while looking for Post-Op food alternatives. I never have time to go to support group work/family and I've never been comfortable sharing. But I know that it is beneficial during this entire process.

So at my heaviest after having my second child was 261 pounds. While I'd like to blame it on pregnancy I can't because I lost all the weight (27 lbs) that I gained during my pregnancy. When I started my 6-month monitiored weight loss I was 259 lbs. By surgery date I was 235 (I think).

I had my procedure done by the Maryland Weight Management by Dr. David vonRueden. I have to say I really love his practice there is so much support pre-op and post-op. You really feel like you have your own persoanl weight loss team (nutritionist, personal trainer, social worker, medical personell) and they are always available and you meet with them often. Additionally they offer exercise classes on-site and weekend workouts that are free to patients (sm fee for friends at some classes).

I'm starting their Couch to 5K this Sunday...yikes.

Wish me luck.

Sarah
