well, I've been overweight most of my life. Really overweight since I was 18. I'm sure there are many people on here that can relate that it is not easy being an overweight teenager....no prom, no high school boyfriends. It sucked. I am in a relationship...we've been together 9 years, planning on getting married next year. And I'm hoping on being slim and trim and fit fit fit! by then. I have 3 children, ages 25, 21 and 7! yep 7 :-) he keeps me young. And I have a granddaughter, 3 years old.
I've been thinking about WLS for a number of years now, and have done tons of research on it. I'm ready to go!
I'm anxious and scared. I'm so greatful for this website to have friends to chat too with concerns, good and bad. I've made friends from my 4 weekly sessions at the Ottawa Civic Hospital. And I hope we keep in touch.

I'm so thankful for this site, it has been a huge help. And continues to be.
