Hi my name is Jerilyn Rose I am so excited to be here. My surgery will be July 14th but for some reason the registration wont let me put a future date:eek: I am having a Gastric Bypass. I progressively gained over 120 pounds. I injured my back severely in 2017, Had bilateral knee replacement in 2020. Had Cervical spine surgery in 2022. Major back surgery in 2024 and hip replacerment in 2025. Due to all the major surgeries and inability to exercise at all, I gained a lot of weight. I have tried and tried to lose it but being 66 years old has not worked in my favor. So....I am having the RNY and I am so glad to have found this group.
