Sort of new here
ive been following this forum for over 2 years. I love reading the posts and all the advise everyone gives.
I wanted gastric bypass 3 years ago but got talked into the Optifast program. Well sadly that program only worked while on the opti.
Today I met the surgeon and I'm cleared for surgery. I am beyond excited. Tomorrow the nurse will call with my surgery date. I cannot wait to share my journey with all you lovely people.
Congrats!

I joined in June when I went to orientation and was so glad that someone had mentioned the site to me. Like you, I have learned a lot and am thankful for the support and encouragement. I told the surgeon how much I had learned from others in their different stages towards health and he told me not to believe everything I read. I told him I only read positive things about him and he smiled (lol).
