I'm almost at the starting gates!

Feb 17, 2011

New to OH! Hey all my name is  Darren, and I am a OH newb :P  I am looking forward to finding a ton of new information and meeting new friends who are going through the same thing that I am.I don't have my surgery date set in stone yet but I am close, I am going for the gastric bypass.

A little about me: I am 6'4 388 lbs, my pics are all current and I am from Thunder Bay, Ontario  Canada and I am proud to say that our city has finally got on the ban wagon and setup a bariatric clinic! Although we don't preform the operations here yet I am optimistic that we are going in the right direction!

Next week I finally go for my upper GI and what I have heard about it I am not looking forward to it. If most women say its painful and women are usually tougher than men for pain tolerance (us guys are just big babies lol) I better be getting some good drugs before they violate me! 

I think having this website/forum/chat is a amazing resource! Looking forward to meet you all :)
