Hi my name is Heather and I had RNY on 11/18/13. I am looking to connect with other African American women who had RNY. Any takers?

@@cmblackmon35,

Me, too.

The gastric sleeve is very popular these days. As technology advances, I think we will keep seeming different procedures. Bariatrics is an interesting field of medicine. Anyhow, welcome!

Hello, I haven't had my RNY yet. My date is April 8,2015. I live in Illinois and I would love for advice, input n suggestions.

Good morning ladies. I'm new to this Bariatric Chat World. Is anyone available to chat.

@ Mrs.J2015 I'm at work now, but will love to chat later.

I had surgury 5/19/14 starting weight 332 , surgury weight 316, goal weght 170 and I am 5 feet 11 and live in MI.

I'm also at work. Just hit me up later.

Hi Ms. Cupcake, can u give me some insight on how your progress has been going so far? I'm trying to decide which surgery will be most effective for me since my lap band failed me 2 yrs. ago. I'm scheduled for surgery April 29. so I want this surgery to be my last surgery. So I'm trying to decide between RYN (Gastric bypass) or Gastric Sleeve. Please help

@@Mrs.J2015, It easier for me to chat on gmail or facebook, but happy to share my experience.

Hi Mimi, would be more than happy to hear from you on my gmail: my web address is:
