I like Governor Christy...you'd never catch Rick "Pretty Ricky" Perry making such a personal confession. I'm voting for him if he runs for President.

I'm in Houston...being banded through True Results this month.

Me too, weird both in same town, both got lapband, both married someone from New Jersey. WTF! are you my doppleganger!?!?!

Anyways, it's great to see a high profile individual take obesity by the horns and tell everyone in the world his story.

@Aeromech, does your wife complain when there is no kraut for her hot dog??? Or, do you have to drive 3/4 across town to get a "slice of pie"??

Or insist the Jersey Shore is the prettiest place on earth???

Actually she doesn't like kraut, she does complain about the lack of good pizza and loves Mrs. Ellies pizza. Yes it's clear across town from us... Lol She watched every minute of jersey shore too...

My wife actually has me drive across town to Central Market to buy her Sabrett hot dogs, saurkraut and mustard when she wants that Jersey food.

For her pizza urge we do Kennedy's Chicago pizza. She gets the thin crust and says it compares to NYC style.

I like Dough Neopolitan Pizza on Blanco. It's lap band size and super thin crust I can get down.

I've been there twice in 18 months since being banded.

Did anyone use the same Dr. as Governor Christie. I read some bad things in the news about him and pending law suites. Wish the best for the Gov even though we would differ politically I know this fat issue knows no bounds.

He used the same doctor that Rex Ryan (NY jets coach) used. I live in PA & I really like Gov Christie. I hope he does well.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞

        I may have to have gall bladder surgery during my weight loss surgery. Not thrilled about it either but do not want 2 recovery times. Just want it over with.

        Thanks for your post. I may need to rethink my decision... :(
