Hi Laura! I'm Megan, also 23, would be happy to support you via this website. I am post-op. My surgery date was a little over 2 months ago, November 19th! I started my pre-op diet on November 4th (2 weeks of protein shakes) and since that date I have lost 71 pounds. Having this surgery was the single BEST thing I have ever done for myself. What can I do to provide you support? Are you pre-op or post-op? Let me know what I can do!

hi laura

welcome

if you are 1/2 as nice as your picture - you must be a terrific person ;)

getting lots of info preWLS can be overwhelming :o

glad you found this board

ask your questions, but keep your eyes open by reading lots of other posts, you'll be surprised to see that many people have similar questions as you do

then you'll see many questions/answers about life during and after recovery

we're pretty nice, and we don't bite (not usually :lol: )

take care - come to the board as often as possible

we love to see B) new people ^_^

take care

good luck
