Been a little whils since i've been on...but i'm down a total of 94 lbs......70 of them have been since the surgery!!  Yee haw!!

My top weight was 312 at age 29...I went to see Dr Stickler out of Charleston, WV, and discussed the weightloss surgery.   I liked him really really well...he said that I would be a perfect candidate for the surgery.  I already had my 6 mos of physicians supervised weightloss out of the way...about a month later, I got the insurance approval...(wasn't easy!)...then, I finally got my surgery date, Oct 7th.  When the surgery date arrived, I was at 286, I lost 26 lbs on my pre-op diet.  The surgery itself was way less complicated than I ever expected..it was almost too easy!!  At this time, just under 1 month post-op, I have lost 24 more pounds, a total of 50 total to date...  Now, I am starting the phase 4 diet...solid foods...and I also get to start exersizing..woohoo!
