Hi Dawnelle

I am SO glad that you've joined here because you are going to be a shining example and a testimony to others that they can help their chronic pain by having weight loss surgery! I am one of those people, and six years later I've maintained my 165 lb. weight loss and have managed to avoid the wheelchair I was destined to be in by age 40.
Keep doing the great work you're doing, and you enjoy the hell out of the decrease in your pain! Just think, it's only going to get BETTER AND BETTER with each pound you shed! Ain't THAT the BEST part of losing all that weight???? (Can you tell I'm passionate about this surgery being a key treatment for pain conditions that are exacerbated by obesity?
