I am a newbie, but I have been reading the blog since May. My journey started 5 years ago, and after going to several seminars, switching insurances , and finally finding the Bariatric Center I liked I am scheduled for surgery on November 4th of this year. I felt that after 4 months of reading everybody else's story that it was time for me to come out of the shadows and be a fully committed member. I live in Southern New Jersey, and I am having my surgery at Cooper Hospital with Dr. BBrendan McConnell.
