Hi, New to the Group

ki4eld

I just thought I'd say hello before I start posting in other threads. I'm a bariatric patient on a low carb diet. I'm branching out from bariatric groups, so I can feel more comfortable when I get to maintenance.

History... spent 20 or so years on a mostly veg diet and gained weight on CICO. I gained enough that my cardiologist said, "Lose it or die before you're 50," which is scary to hear at 43. I had Roux-N-Y bypass on January 19th and I've been low carb since June 2014. I have 93lbs to go to hit my doctor's goal weight for me.

Enjoy your weekend and thanks for the add, Mods.
