Wink Hi!

Hello Everyone! I am Tara. I live in Spring Hill Fl. I am going to orientation tonight to have gastric bypass. I am really excited and hoping that this will bring some positive changes to my life.

Welcome......

There is not much I can offer at this time since I am still waiting for approval, but I know for a fact, you have come to the right place for a wealth of information and wonderful support.

Keep us posted with your WLS journey.

Question lost!

I am definately new to the site, its kinda hard to manuever my way around. Is this like myspace where you have friends? Are the posts emailed to your email account. I am a little bit lost.

Welcome to the forum. Don't know if it's like my space, because I don't have nor do I go on my space. I know that you can go to user CP and set up if you want to be e-mailed or not.

Default TT Forum Stuff

Hello and welcome Tara to TT Forum, here you will find supportive members, who will have great thoughts and be willing to share there honest experience. As for the inner workings, you can receive private emails, private postings, it all has to do with how you set up your "My Account", newer feature is having a list of friends where they can send you messages into a folder and you can invite others who you would want to have on your friends list. Many here are very knowledgeable about the system here, I am not the wisest when it comes to computer tech.
I hope that you can get some get information at your seminar and that you will take the time to look around the site here. It has been wonderfully helpful and supportive throughout my proceedures and continues to be a site I like to try and visit on a daily basis, as there are always new people, people looking for support in one way or another and for me I feel it is good that I can try and give something back to a forum that has given me help in times of need.
All the best to you Tara.
