    Hi!
    I am having my surgery on July 17 after doing 12 monthly visits with my PCP among what seems like a thousand other things. I am a retired teacher. I only have 1 daughter. She has been a joy to me her whole life. She is getting ready to start her 4th year of medical school. If you can't tell, I am really proud of her. She is my major support person! We live in West Virginia. It is also known for its beautiful mountains, rivers, and lakes. Major tourism for white water rafting and snow skiing.

    Hello, I'm 2.5 years post-op. SW 233, CW 132, HT 5'4". I actually gained an inch after losing weight because I started standing up straighter. I've been at the 132 +/- for the past year. My dairy is open if you want to see what and how much I'm eating now and my exercise. I can tell you that every day isn't perfect but I'm not trying for perfect, just for each day to be better than my pre-surgery days so I can keep the weight off.

    I have sent some if not all of you friend requests as well. Anyone coming across this can add me too. I had my rny in 2009. I had a repair in May 2017. I am finally eating solids after a rough recovery, I was told it was going to be but didn't think it was going to be almost as rough as the first time around. I made some mistakes and ready to move on. I am here to learn what I can, make friends and offer support and or advice from my experiences. I am a single, sahm in Michigan. I suffer from chronic pain from fibromyalagia, mental health issues (mainly depression) and back pain. This can make life quite challenging enough. I have 3 teens, but only one lives home as of this spring. I have a 19 yo dtr, 18 yo son, and a 15 yo dtr. Hope you all the best.
