Hello. I am 2 days post op. My weight on surgery day was 288. Hopping to get down to 150. I am new to all this but I love the idea of having friends to turn to that are going through the exact same thing as I am. And also the thought of being there for you all as well. I think it's great that we can form these circles of friendship. So to tell you a little about myself I'm 34 and live in Tennessee. My starting weight was 309. I have had chronic back pain (quiet severe at times) for 8 years. It has really stole my happiness but not anymore. I'm taking my life back as of now!! I hope all of you the best and I look forward to getting to know some friends!!
Tomorrow I go under the knife to change my life. High blood pressure high cholesterol sleep apnea starting off at 277 hoping to be down to 175 one day. A little nervous about the process and recovery.
