Chris referred me to this forum because this is a supportive & friendly group. Glad to meet you!

My name is Tamara, I'm from So CA and am one year out RnY. I'm doing great but have been looking for a nice place to hang once in a while.

The main forum is like so many other boards I've been or (or monitored)  where the overall essence is good but eventually the obstinate, disgruntled and/or ill-informed begin to thrive.

I just want to hang around in peace and not have to dodge negative know-it-alls.

So, howdy and thanks for letting me join in!

Welcome to our LW Board.   I'm glad you found us!  I've been here over 3 years and drama isn't a game we play here.  Every WLS is represented here and we support everyone.

Congrats on being successful your first year!

 Thank you all so much. I feel comfortable here already!

Elizabeth, are you in Orange County? I'm in Costa Mesa and went to the N.E.W program - had Dr. Quebbemann as my surgeon.
