Howdy From North Texas!
My name is Carol and I am new to forums as well as bariatric surgery. I have started the process and if all goes well, I will have the surgery in late fall. My step-mother has had the surgery and we have been so thrilled with her triumphs! It is her journey that has inspired and helped me come to the decision that this is something I want as well. Enjoying embarking on this journey with ya'll!  |

Hello and welcome!!
As everyone has said, this is a great place for support and tons of information, and some needed humor.

Welcome! I've just joined here in the past week myself--everyone here is so supportive.
I have to do the 90-day nutritional fun, and expect to have surgery around the same time as you. I look forward to getting to know you along with all these other great peeps!
