bgjon5 17 Posted August 8, 2017 I see a lot here who post their X-post op stories so I figured I would go ahead and share mine, I had my RNY on July 26th 2016, at my heaviest weight I toppled the scales at 460, at the day of surgery I was 418 in just 1 short year I'm now around 275 I'm usually not good at writing or sharing stories about myself, since being a big person self esteem issues has, and still is something I have regardless of how much weight I've lost. It's funny after the pounds fall off it was up until a few months ago I would look into the mirror and see no changes regardless of what others told me they saw for take a ways I would say follow what the DR tells you, there will be days that's hard and days you want to give up stick to the plan ! follow advice from forums like these, I rarely posted much here however look at my join date I've done allot of reading and searching others stories here so I would know what to expect before, during and after surgery I hope one day I can offer advice that will help someone along their journey also!. 6 Joann454, JohnnyCakes, watsongirl17 and 3 others reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
