I was a 36 BMI on the day of surgery and I feel I am doing well with my weight loss. Just remember its a tool to help you so don't abuse it and with a lifestyle change you should do very well :-)

I have been very blessed with no problems and I'm happy with my weight loss I am down 117 from my heaviest and 85 from jan 3rd when I made the choice and 57 since surgery. I have ran 3 half marathons since surgery and loving life!!

I live in Modesto and had to use the Fresno Kaiser. I guess I got lucky because I had only a 6 week exactly time frame from when I said yes to surgery until the day I had surgery. I'm sorry for those who are having the trouble getting approved.

Count me in too :-)

I'm doing my 2nd half this Sunday in San Francisco ... I'll be almost 12 weeks post op

Isn't that for men only ???

I'm 2 weeks post op today and I lost 20 lbs... Very happy

I never heard a thing about the options class. I had to do a mental health evaluation ( 2 different appt. ) and meet with the nutrionist. After I completed that I got to schedule with the surgeon on which was when he was to tell me what weight I needed to lose but lucky for me when I met with him he said I was ready for surgery.

Somehow I replied to this thread on another one... Lol but here it is again. Happy Birthday! I have been walking everyday since surgery on Feb 14th I walk a min of 2 miles a day but generally 4 ( I have done 8 and will be doing 12 this Sat.) I have lost 15lbs from surgery date I try not to weigh everyday.

Oops wrong thread I'm sorry
