  1. Yes it seems strange Sad and a little nerve wracking. I will no Longer be the person I am Today and that is a scary thought. Tommorow I will have a friend placed inside my body who will support and encourage me to stay on track through my new journey to a healthy fit and worthwhile lifestyle. I have stuggled for so long and finally I think this may be the answer and i dream that the thin person who has been trapped inside for so long will finally manage to emerge and leave the other half go . That whole other person that I allowed to attach itself to me to provide 24 protection against hurt and pain and vunerability. Unfortunately that whole other person took over and the real me has got lost along the way. Im now ready to start my journey of discovery and enlightenment and am ready to show the world the thin person that Im ready to love again.... I will try to keep track of my feelings and my progress in the hope that someday I can help 1 other person along the road to acceptance and true happiness.

  3. Hi , Tommorow is My day for surgery, I'm quite nervous but also looking forward to it. Not quite sure what to expect as I know everyone reacts differently. I came accross this board looking for some support looks like you are a friendly bunch. This procedure is only available since May in Ireland so not a lot out there at the moment for support. But the surgeon is from France and is very experienced so that at least is good news . Looking forward to getting to know you all as I start my journey.:rolleyes
