Welcome! Nice to meet you! There is a lot of good info in this forum. Enjoy the threads and ask additional questions if you need to. There should be a January group that was started for all of those having surgery in Jan. I am from the Dec. group having had my surgery on the 4th. Luckily, after a few minor bumps I am doing quite well. Do your research, it is only a tool, not a miracle. Just being honest! You have not chosen the easy way out!

Welcome and I thnk you will be happy with your decision, It is a big step and like mrsblues said is isn't "an easy way out" but it is a tool that will help you in a great way. I understand your fear cause if you weren't a bit nervous then I would be worried about you, lol. Please come here for support and ask any questions you have, somebody will have an answer, Also let us know how you are doing, We want to share in your journey, Again Welcome

Thank you both so much i feel like i need that extra boost like if like a headstart to loose weight im really looking forward to my surgery
