Wish Me Luck

Waiting to see my surgeon for the third time now to try to get him to re-do my by-pass. First one was done in 1993.
I lost over 200 lbs but then over the last 18 years I have gained it almost all back.
A back injury and a surgery on my leg kept me down for 6 months both times
and unable to truly exercise for even longer.

And as we all know sitting on your a** eating is a recipe for disaster.
So here I am all hopeful that my joining this and a FB support group will help
my case and he will agree to do the surgery again.

Jamie.. Glad you are doing so well! I had a hard time drinking so much too. Everytime I drank after the surgery I felt so sick and full. It did get better with time though, thank goodness. Good Luck!!
