These are the good women who were on the forum when I began my WLS journey. They are wonderful, and except for Dale mostly not on anymore. I sure do miss them and the knowledge they shared so well.

I wonder what they would have to say to us if they were to come back today? I wonder how they are, 6-7 years post op? It would sure be educational!
