Tony M63

My name is Tony  I'm 57 years old from MA. I heard about Bariatric Pal from the audio book, "The Big Book on the Gastric Sleeve." I am 2 days from surgery and have a lot of mixed emotions that sometimes I will have tears in my eyes thinking this is what it has come down too for me to loose weight. I know deep down inside that I am making the best decision for myself and my family.  I hope the Bariatric Pal site will give me support along the way because people without a weight problem do not understand the battle we go through everyday thinking about our weight. I was very athletic in high school and played college hockey so I'm digging deep inside for my competitive spirt to rise and get me through this journey.
