Hello and Help!
Thank you guys so much!!! Y'all really hit some of the main points as to why I chose this surgery in the first place. I seriously appreciate the time you took to respond. I went to bed last night feeling a little bit uneasy, but after reading these encouraging posts I know I can do this. Though it may not seem like it, I am super excited on the inside. But those emotions have not shown outwards. Thank you thank you! I will of course be on this forum more actively instead of the sidelines. I'm so ready to join the loser's bench!
Congrats on your weight loss so far!
I've been coping with a combination of therapy and lots of activities. My post-op life is pretty fun :)
