Greetings Gwen,
THANK YOU so MUCH for re-posting these! You listed links/discussions that I have a ton of questions about...so I have quite a bit of reading to do.

This was a REALLY SWEET thing to do to help us 'newbies' out, and it is VERY MUCH APPRECIATED by this 'newbie'.

THANKS!!

~Michele

Hi Paul

We must have some telepathic connection as I have been thinking about you this morning on my way to work and have just posted in your Thread

Hope you're doing well?

Just wanted to say hello and introduce myself. I'm in the last stages of pre-op testing and all that other fun stuff for my gastric bypass. I estimate my surgery date will be at the end of March and I'm very excited, a little nervous too, but mostly excited. I'm looking forward to learning and sharing with others who have already been through this experience, and those like me, who are about to.

Jane
