Gastric Bypass Surgery Support Group
Gastric bypass (GBP) is any of a group of similar operative procedures used to treat morbid obesity, a condition which arises from severe accumulation of excess weight in the form of fatty tissue, and the health problems ("co-morbidities") which result. If you are considering gastric bypass or have had it, join the community where we share our experiences and find support.
I haven't been on here in forever, probably a couple years now! But I am excited to see several people from my surgery year still here and very active!
My surgery was in November of 2010, and I'm doing very well! I did gain back about 25-30 of the 100 pounds I lost, and I'm working to get that off now. Old habits started sneaking back in, and I found I could eat just about anything again.
I did enjoy coming back here today to see my photos. I hadn't seen these particular ones since I was last on here, and it is proof that I'm no where near where I was before the surgery! I still don't recognize my old self!
Hope everyone is doing well, and best of luck to all the newbies! It is so worth it!

I agree, every so often, I go back through my old pics and journal entries. It's a good reminder of how far I've come.
Glad you are doing well!
