okay, 2019 and I'm retired in Anchorage, Alaska. and darn it...I weight 195!!!  not only that, I tripped 4 weeks ago and broke my shoulder. turns out I have osteopenia. While I have always taken my vitamins, I quit calcium since I drink a gallon of milk a week.  wrong move. and my cholesterol is up.  time to make some changes.

 

it's now 2017, and I see that I've been on this side for 15 years!!!  I had RNY 2009, but now have gained 30 pounds and am starving all the time. Going to find a doctor here in Kentucky, where I live now. 

 

Here I am, again.  I was on this site years ago, hoping for surgery but my insurance company kept changing the requirements as I went along, and then I moved, no WLS insurance...so I paid to go to Mexico and was banded by Dr Joya in 2005.  And went back to have it revised in 2005.  And went back again to have it removed.  We were never sure why I couldn't tolerate it, but all I did was 'slime'.  I was averaging 2-3 oz of water a day, tiny sips at a time.  After a couple months of that, my PCP told me it had to come out or I'd die.  So I have been very, very sad for the last few years.
