Introducing mahself...
Hi! I'm skinnymonkey (well, not so skinny yet, but soon...). I had LAP RNY surgery on October 4, and at my 2 week post op appointment had lost 20 pounds. Don't know how much I weigh now, as I don't have a scale at home and don't plan on buying one.
I am glad to have found this forum!

Yep, feels wonderful! I am wondering if most people on this board are from the west coast? Seems like a lot of Californians.

We have a few people from all over the world, but the majority, I would say, are from CA.

Thanks sweetie. I'm hoping to hit 100 before my 4 months but with all the alcohol I plan on drinking this weekend I don't think I'll make it! Oh well. It will happen soon enough! Big hugs sweetie.
