So, my RNY was August 8th of this year. I started seeing the dietician and had my first health check visit 12/15/15, so almost 1 year ago. I started at 496 pounds. Yesterday I had an appointment and weighed in at 353. I'm 143 pounds down over about a year since I started my journey. I'd like to go about another 75 pounds. If I hit that mark, I'll be the weight I was as a junior in high school. I'm currently 42. I hope everyone else is having success with their journeys as well!!

You are doing GREAT!! Good for you!! I am also an RNYer. One of the very best things I ever did for myself!! Here are my STATS: HW 249( this time I had weighed 285#'s earlier just almost a year before) SW 232 LW 117 CW 125#'s. I have gained so much besides just the weight loss. I use to be on 12 different medications including shots 2 times a day for Diabetes. I got off all diabetic meds right away after my surgery. I am on less than 1/2 of my high blood pressure meds. I now take 4 meds plus my Vitamins. I can walk for my exercise. I walk 4 to 5 times a week and walk 4 to 5 miles each time I go!! So everything that I went thru was so TOTALLY worth it!! KEEP ON KEEPING ON!!!

Congratulations
