Hey! I was banded on December 29th and am looking for a mentor. I'm a 22 year old senior in college from Indiana. Let me know if you can help! ljmercer@bsu.edu

Hello everyone! This is my first day on the site and I'm sooo glad I found all of you! Everytime I read a post it's so amazing to know someone is thinking about all the same stuff I worry about everyday! My surgery date is 12/29 and I'm freaking out! I'm soo excited about starting this process but so scared I won't be able to deal emotionally. What are you all doing to prepare for your surgeries? Any advice to get through the holidays? My 22nd birthday is also Christmas Eve so I feel like it might be really difficult/emotional..but I'm definitely trying to look at the surgery as a gift and an amazing new start to life!
