Oh thank you, Suzie. Also thank you for the friend request. I'm happy to meet you.

Yep, its been quite the ride. It isn't easy. It's drastic and it is life changing. You need to be ready for it but at least for me it has been so worth all of the hard work. Please feel free to send questions my way. I honestly don't mind. I'm an RN and a bariatric support group leader....and one day I dream of working within my surgeon's bariatric practice. So I LOVE teaching and supporting others on this journey. I really do. Welcome to the forum!
