Hi, I saw this group on the forum and I got excited. Just to introduce myself, my name is Monique. I'm from Baton Rouge, LA. I just turned 38 years old yesterday. My highest weight was 365, although the date of my surgery, which was 6/26/13, I was 327. This morning I weighed in at 319. My goal weight is 180. So far I haven't run into any serious problems other than severe nausea a day or two after surgery but since I've been home the only thing is the trapped gas I had in my chest, which has pretty much gone away. Still on liquids and so far doing pretty good on it. Can't wait to hear some of you guy's stories of your personal journeys.
congrats and glad to hear that your surgery went well.
Congrats, may you reach your goal..

Thanks for the warm welcome guys! I'm SO glad I was able to find this site so full of supportive people who are about to go through or have gone through what I have. I wish you ALL luck on your journeys.
Welcome everyone I just want to say thank you for joining the group and sharing your journey with us. I am a year out as of yesterday. I lost 85 lbs and I COULD HAVE LOST MORE but I chosen not to because I like being thick I just failed at toning up. I have no lose skin and I am 5'6 i started at 273. With clothes on you can barely tell I look like I got the perfect shape lol but it is all toning. I went in thinking I would need a mess of plastic surgery afterwards but it was not until i got out of the 200's my opinion changed and i realized it was just toning up. I went through some downs in my personal life which made it hard to focus on weight loss for me. I am very determined to get back on track after my setbacks I had. I am remaining strong and hopeful in getting shaped up sooner than later. Be expecting to hear more from me. If you have questions feel free to PM (private message) me or write on my wall because i get those notifications instantly. TAKE CARE EVERYONE
