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.
Hi Everybody
Just checking in to let you know that life is going good. Time is really flying by. Who would have thought that I would be celebrating 7 months post op on November 9th. It went so fast it flew right by me. I've posted some updated pictures for you and I am more than proud of where I am now which is nearly 120 pounds down. Woot woot. I must tell you that there are days when I look at myself and still say "no way is that me" but yes it is. I am still adjusting mentally and some days physically. Overall though I couldn't be happier, healthier or more grateful for this opportunity. For those who are days or months away, I know this is the time when you get apprehensive, nervous and even second guess your decision, but you are in the right place for it. Just click on a few of the success stories. Look at the before and after pictures and allow yourselves to fantasize about when it is your turn and before you know it, it will be. God is good and He is able to do all things but fail. Put your faith and trust in him and He will see you through.
Wishing you all the best. Tami

(p.s. I'm slightly jealous that you've lost as much in 7 months as I've lost in 10. But I'll forgive you!)

Keep up the great work!
