Hi, first off I wnat to thank everybody, you guys are the best people on the net. You are helpful to strangers, and you care, I highly appreciate everything, and everybody here on TT.

My name is Heather, I just made the decision to have the surgery at the beginning or September, but I've been diligently researching for 2 years.

I feel like I'm at an AA meeting, (hi my name is Heather and I haven't had cake in 5 months!)

I weigh in at 346 (9/18/09) with a BMI of 52.4.

My doctor first brought it up after a gallbladder removal in Feb, because I have the 'spare tire' for 3 people.

I would love to start friendships here, with everyone who would like a friend, because as I said, I've never been on a forum with more helpful, caring people.
