Aloha,
When is your surgery? What type of surgery will you be having?
I had the mini gastric bypass on October 9 in Mexico.

Hello, I don't have an angel either but you will get a lot of responses on
here from wonderful people and if you see someone you like or are
interested in their story, ask to be their friend. I have met so many
caring, encouraging and uplifting people on here that I feel totally
prepared. When I've been down, my OH friends have been right here. Good
luck with your surgery, I'm having surgery next Wednesday...Halloween!!!

Hello from Michigan - We all have angels - but if your asking to bend
someones ear, I would love to chat with you. I started off feeling I made
a mistake having the surgery but now I'm happy and doing very well. And
you will too. Its an amazing surgery, not easy, more like a roller coaster
with the food we can and can't eat. So I would love to chat, just drop me
a line. Good luck to you. You'll do fine.

Angel's are volunteer's in networks / areas of the country who have been
through wls. In my local network we have only 2 angel's. One for bypass and
one for lap band. But I've found everyone who answers you're question's is
an angel.
Good Luck hun and don't ever hesitate to ask anything.

I see your day is just about here I was you all the best, if you need
someone to talk to I'm here, I', 71/2 month out and have lost 116 pounds so
pround of me I never thought I would come as far as I have so far, I use to
wear the supersize big girl clothes like 36 size skirt now I'm in a size 24
with a little room still in that the weight part has slow up some but the
inches are still coming off. I really look forward to gettting up in the
morning each day at 4:40 am and do 2 miles so far, When I first started out
I couldn't walk a mile. All I'm saying is believe in you and keep your
faith in GOD he will pull you through because there will be days you will
wonder why you did this to yourself, but it will pass I promise you that.
Take Care and please let me know how you are doing.
LOVE & HAPPINESS
