Well it's been nearly a year since my last post - Bad Wikkki - BAD WIKKKI. I was the one who post the first thread, introducing myself. I had WLS 5/9/02 and, to date, have lost 91 pounds. Still have a long way to go and it looks like I'm gonna be one of the unfortunate slow losers. Mine is a revision from a VBG done in 1983 so I lose more slowly. Good news is I'm losing tons of inches. I've gone from a very tight 34/36 to a well fitting 20/22 and sometimes 18s. Just wanted to update everyone and make an effort to try to get back in the loop.
