New to the LW boards

Welcome!  This is a very supportive group.  good luck with your surgery!

Welcome to the LW board, Amanda.

Let your body decide...go as low as you can after surgery. I am 5'4" (pre-op weighed a whopping 203 for a 35.2 BMI) . I got as low as 121 for one day, but holding steady at 130/131.

Welcome!

This is a great, supportive drama free board!  I rarely post on the other forums but this place is safe and very helpful.

Good luck with your surgery.....keep posting...we are here for you.  Many of us have struggled our entire lives with our weight and WLS makes such a difference.  I feel blessed daily.

Good luck!

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone!

Glad you posted this.  I just popped over from RNY forum as well.  I'm a 39/40 BMI and am starting to panic a bit about upcoming surgery.  I think I need to hang out in the Lightweight forum more often.

Yeap, welcome to the LW board as well.

Welcome and visit often.  Don't panic, it was the best thing I have ever done.  Down from a size 20 to a 14 in 3+ months.  Never could have done it without this surgery.  Current BMI is 32!!

I love how positive everyone seems to b here on the LW board. This is the best board in obesity.com!

Welcome to the LW board.  I started at BMI 42, but they dont kick me out lol.  3+ months out and down to BMI of 32 already.  Glad you came over to LW Board.
