Hello to all, my name is Rhonda and I had my gastric bypass surgery done on March 4th 2002 by Dr. Kelly in Mass. I was 314 pounds and at my wits end!! In October of 2002 I had lost 100 pounds and was on top of the world!!!! in all I lost 142 pounds . I was looking and feeling great, I became more active and did all the things I enjoyed doing. In 2005 I got a great job but it was a desk job that had a wonderful cafeteria in the building and I began to put back on weight.. Before that job the other job I had was low paying and I had no benefits and I stopped taking my vitamins because I couldn't afford them and now I have Osteopenia of the bones from severe vitamin deficiency and has even shrunk 2 inches and on top of that I also have fibromyalgia and arthritis and I am in so much pain most of the time and find it hard to exercise to get this weight off. I am so depressed at times that I find myself just eating to forget what I am going through but I am at the point of great determination to lose this weight and found myself back here for support because I cant do this alone and here is where I can find help and help others if I can!!!
