HI everyone!!! My name is Jennifer. I had the RNY on 10/06/14. MY heaviest wt. 381. Day of surgery 370 and my current wt. is 293. Whoever said wls was the easy way out had no idea what they were talking about. It's been a rough road for me but so worth it! I'm looking forward to getting support from you all and well as offering my support to you! :)

    Every day gets better for sure. My biggest struggle at this time is getting in enough protein. Some days the new stomach doesn't tolerate much and some days it does. But each new day I shoot for my goal :)

    Hello, had my revision rny Sept 23rd. I've loss 71lbs. Had lots of complications with staf infections, 4 surgeries and 5 hospital stays. Finally feeling back to normal. Now just trying to get enough protein in daily. Each day I get a little stronger.
