surgery less then one week and new to this site

Hi all

So my surgery is next week. I started 2 yrs ago with kaiser fremont but droped out as i was doing so well with my weight. But well i never really lost all the weight. For 13 yrs i was caring for my handicapped child and going to school. Well sadly he passed in jan so i gained most of my weight back.

I finally desisged it was time to take care of me and finally loose this 120 lbs of mine. I found this site and cant wait to talk to you all.
