Melisa, I have been looking for someone who started this when I did and at the same weight. I had an Open RNY on 8/15 and I weighed 305 day of surgery. I am 5'5...Please, if you want too, lets keep in touch, how are you doing, how much can you eat, do you dump, I can eat so much these days it is driving me crazy! I have all the willpower in the world to get up @ 6am to go workout, but, can't stop eating bad foods the past 2 wks...Keep in touch! Good Luck to you. Heather (Open RNY 8/15 - 305/210/150)
