Had my rny 12-12-12.....down 49 pounds. It's been a struggle, I've been stalled for about 3 wks now but happy with the progress so far :-)

Hello! I live in MI....where did you have your surgery?

I live in Jackson MI and had mine done in Ann Arbor at Forest Medical Center, it's only for gastric bypass patients they do plastic surgery too after you have lost all your weight

I had mine in dearborn at oakwood....I am 8 wks out. How are you two doing??

I am 5 months out and down 70 pounds gained a few back over the past month but by bad decisions still have another 50 to go. I am back on track though

I'm from Michigan. Had my surgery in Alma on 11/20. I have lost 50 lbs.

Are any of you using my fitness pal?

Congrats to you guys! I live in East Lansing, I'm scheduled to have my surgery on February 18th at McLaren in Flint! I'm going to join myfitnesspal, I hear it's great...I would love to chat with you guys, or maybe even meet one of these days!

NurseTab- what have you been doing that's bad?

Eating everything I can and things I shouldn't be eating ice cream chips you name it, but thankfully I am back on track. I just hope I didn't mess anything up by bad choices I have gained weight I was at 193 and am 201 now ugh

I'm from Flint and had mine done at Mclaren. Had mine 7/17/12 and down 100 pounds. Tash0130 is Dr. Kia doing your surgery? If he is he's the best. I have had no complications. Very friendly and my family loved him.

Yes, he is! I absolutely LOVE his confidence, because of him I am not nervous. I had my endoscopy 2 weeks ago, and I met the surgical nurses. They're so sweet! Do you go to the3 support group?

Nurse Tab, I think you're beating yourself up over nothing.....you will get back on track!

I am getting back on track your right but when you start to fall off the wagon ya get scared you messed everything up and won't get back on the wagon

Do you have cravings like you did pre-op?

Yea not as much though and I'm pretty happy after the first bite and don't need to eat the rest but have ugh

I think u are all doing amazing....it is a huge step we all took and everyone will fall off the wagon one time or another. Kbuys, I hope I can lose 100 pounds, that is awesome. I am 8 weeks out and down 55 pounds. I stopped weighing every day and only weigh once a week now.....
