I just hope they are getting information they need. With the flood of gastric bypass shows and obesity clinic shows on TV, the word is out there and the lists are getting longer and longer everyday.

My doctor asked me about it a few weeks ago. He has had quite a few patients come into the office asking to get on the wait list. My story in my town alone and my results are spreading...remember there are a few VBG patients in my town who where not very successful and one other patient that I just found out about who had RNY, so maybe my results are being taken positively and people are inquiring.

I like the fact that the guests can't post here now without registering..we were getting so much "junk mail" and that has stopped now!

Perhaps "Big Medicine" is causing people to search out online support groups to check out GPB?

Reached my new goal of 130...and I think I want to stop losing now. "Stop losing now".Wow, I never thought I'd ever say that!
Looks like Donna is right though. My body doesn't seem to be done...
