Hi there and welcome to the family!

I am also a newbie - only joined in July 2007 and still pre-opp.

I'm hopefully having my surgery late in September and I have chosen Dr Dillemans. If you are looking for others that's had their surgery with Dr D then search for Shereeks (UK); Bella (The Netherlands) to name but two.

As I know how intimidating this forum can be when you first start exploring it I thought I'd give all the newbies a few pointers as to the threads that made an impression on me:

Best Advice for Pre-Op - written and compiled by LisaM

Pouch Rules for Dummies - posted by Baron Patrick

Best Advice for Post-Op - written and compiled by LisaM

Best Food, Best Protein, etc. for Post-Op - compiled by LisaM

What Supplements are you on? - started by Jerrod24

The things people wish they had known beforehand - compiled by LisaM

I have also been asked to add the book "Weight Loss Surgery for Dummies" to this list, I have not read it myself but plan on ordering it via Amazon today - full review to follow shortly

Have a great time and I look forward to following your journey!

PS: If any of the "oldies" have any other threads to bring to our attention please let me know and I will add it to my list.

Hugs
