Hello Jane! My name is Kim and I am 3 monthes post surgery. Fi there is any questions that you may have about the surgery or anything then please don't hesitate to email me and I am there for you. You are taking a step that is going to be a wonderful step for you and your family and the rewards are going to be absolutely fantastic!!! All I can say is eat, eat, eat!!! Enjoy it while you can. I have lost 55 lbs. since I had my surgery March 31st, 2004. I did loose 15 lbs. from January until March 31st when I had my surgery because they say the healthier you are the better it is for you when it comes time for your surgery so that makes a total of 70 lbs. since January 2004. I've gone from 238 lbs. to 168 lbs. (since Jan.) and I feel like a different person and you will too. Good luck! You will be in my prayers! Kim S.

Thank you so much for your kind words, encouragement and support. It really means a lot to me. This site is a blessing. It is hard to get support from people who haven't been there. I will take everyone's advice to heart and do my best to follow the right path. I know that I will have to take it one day at a time. I'm really looking forward to be a loser!

Congratulations on your surgery date! I have some Zen Wisdom for you - Nothing exists but momentarily...One thing flows into another...observe things as they are, let everything go as it goes. This is to put everything under control in its widest sense. --- May God keep you close to his side as you travel your new journey. You will have ups and downs. You can always turn to us, your AMOS family, we will give support, comfort and encouragement. You will find this will be the best thing you could ever have done for yourself as well as your family. I know that was true for me. Keep us posted when you reach the "other" side. I pray for a speedy and easy recovery for you. Don’t forget to update your profile at least monthly. We all like to see how we are doing!!! Make sure you take pictures. It’s great to see the new you emerge!!! Not to mention the look on YOUR face when you look at those pictures and compare them in a few months! It’ll be a BIG WOW!!! Please remember too, that this is a *tool* to use. Make sure you use it wisely. The first year it’s pretty easy, after that I’ve been hearing (I’m not speaking from experience as I’m not a year out yet) that it gets increasingly difficult. Choose the right foods and measurements wisely! Good luck and God Bless!!! RNY 10/31/03 down 103 pounds– I’M IN THE CENTURY CLUB!!!
