My name is Joy and I am currently attending a weight loss program called Options. This is a 6 month class that will end in August 2007. I am looking forward to having surgery sometime this year...if all is approved by the surgeon. I am looking to meeting new friends that can support me through this new life change. So if any one has any info that can help prepare me for surgery ...please feel free to message me or to add me as a friend.
