Perhaps we can all start off by posting a small intro on where we are from, and our weight loss journeys?

My name is Puja (obviously), and I've been overweight my whole life! I was born and raised in California, but lived in Bangalore for several years where I pursued my MBBS degree. I had WLS on August 31st, 2011, and have been in maintenance for about 6 months!

Hi! I am so glad I found this group. My name is Shiela and I live in Texas. I grew up in New York. I have been overweight my whole life. I was sleeved on June 6th of this year. I am only 5 weeks out. I have lost about 20 pounds so far. I am averaging 2 pounds a week.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
