Hello Everyone, I'm Kim, will be turning 54 in April and am having my sleeve surgery tomorrow! This app is very new to me and I'm not exactly sure how to navigate it but like the idea of finding and offering positive support to one another. I have had several health issues in the past six years that have brought me to a place where I'm heavier than I've ever been and actually more concerned with several co-morbidities rather than just wanting to look good and wear smaller sizes. With that said, I have been overweight all my life and used food to soothe myself, Celebrate, numb, etc. I'm excited to have the surgery but scared without a head transplant (lol) I will fail after the honeymoon phase. Finding a group to discuss our successes and struggles while keeping a positive focus is what I'm looking for. I'm also seeking a buddy with a similar outlook who would like accountability and encouragement and a listening ear. Anyone who could teach me a few tips and tricks about this app would be welcomed as well![emoji6]
