Hello Everyone:

My name is Jennifer and I am a RNY post-op. I had my surgery on May 15, 2008 and I am down 71 pounds (as of July 23, 2008). I've had a few minor bumps in the road, but would do it again in a heartbeat. Absolutely NO regrets! I already feel more energetic and know that it can only get better. I am hoping to draw inspiration from others, and hopefully share my success with those looking forward to their own journey.
