Cool Will Happen

Will Happen
Hi everyone, ust wanted to say hi. Waiting for everthing to happen is hard, but I know the waiting in do time will bring the things we want the most. Which happens to be the "GASTRIC BYPASS".
I have everythingdone, as far as tests are concerned, just trying to get it all in. I need a lot of support right now. I don't have any friends right now, never did understand why being fat had anything to do with making friends, but I quess it does. I hope everyone out there, gets their hearts desire when all is done.

Default Hello BlueEyes

You have come to the right place. you will find that there is plenty of support her from new pre-ops to post-ops that are up to 3-5 years out.

Good luck with your journey and feel free to ask any kind of question here because there is always someone here that has gone through it and has an answer to what you need to say or know.

I have been to a few, I know there is more. I like having people to talk to.
I know, I take myself to seriously, it's almost like I can't help it. But I will try. Thank you.

This is such an amazing journey.. you discover so much about yourself along the way. Like I never knew before that I could be in a healthy and loving relationship... but guess what?? I can and I am.. wow what a miracle. I don't have to let people walk over me like I was invisible or nothing.. because I have a strength I've never known before. I know that my friends in this group helped me to discover that within myself.. and I know I am a much better person because of them.. and my new found securities..

I am a butterfly.. watch me fly..

You will have the same type of outcome if you stick with us sweetie.. watch out world.. blue eyes is on the way..
