Hello one and all i am a 28 year old single post op gastric bypass patient from boston ma. My goal now is to stay healthy ive already took the the first steps and maintain my health. And get as much information as i can.
I have a long story of weight loss, gain, loss -- including losing 150 pounds TWICE, once with gastric bypass surgery (which I CAN'T RECOMMEND!) and once via healthy eating and exercise. This is a journey and if you're interested, you can read all about my lonnnnggg journey on my blog.
Now, the thing I care most about is putting aside perfection and blame and just living healthy and happy!

Hello, I am Dawn. I had a Gastric Bypass 6 years ago. I love being the size I am. I am looking for a support group, I want to talk to people that have had this done and know what I went through.
I once weighed 530 lbs. I lost a good amount of weight on my own and then had RNY gastric bypass surgery almost two years ago. I have lost a total of about 265 lbs and hope to lose another 30-40 at least. I'm not so much governed by the number on the scale as I am by how I feel and I feel GREAT!
