My husband qualifies, although he never posts. He was 47, 285 at 6'1", he lost 110 lbs in 4 months, then stabilized. He did have complications, actually, but that was pretty much a freak thing. He leaked at the stoma (5 days post-op), was reopened. Did fine then. No problems since.

I was 325 when I had LAP-RNY on October 8th. Now two months on the other side, I am down 51 and feel I am doing well with this new tool. What would you like to know? Please feel free to email me at [email protected].
