Congrats on starting your journey.  Where is your city?  I've never heard of it.  I'm new to Florida myself.

I wish you guys lived closer to Tampa. Me and Steve have to make plans to meet up with you guys. Nan is my second Mom. You guys rock! We have our own support group in Tampa.

So when do you move to Tampa?

Topic: Thought of the day for wednesday
Unloving people reason that walls are safer than bridges and they attract others that are just as cautious, phony, and self-centered. It's a prison life where the loneliness can get very painful. There are always distractions, kicks, and sensations, but the unloving person always faces the question: What else is there?

Moving to Florida in the very near future and am looking for some guidance on finding a Bariatric Surgeon who might be willing to accept my wife and I (post-op) for follow ups.  Also would be interested in some recommendations for Support Groups...

We will be in Palm Beach County ( Delray Beach / Boca Raton / Boynton Beach area)

Thanks!

Love doesn't abuse you or take you for granted, doesn't blame you or carry grudges, doesn't bully you with loud voice or tears, doesn't get you into win-lose arguments, doesn't make you prove yourself over and over, doesn't need to be right all the time, doesn't pout or refuse to talk to you, doesn't remember all the things you've done wrong, doesn't use you for its own purposes and then discard you. Love doesn't.
