Excited! Nervous! Visualising the new me!

So I have my consultation in January and then hopefully my surgery in early February. This is 6 years of planning, researching and dreaming now it is a reality! Hello to everyone and I just want you to know your stories have given me even more confidence that I am doing the right thing!

Congratulations , and welcome too ! Youll find lots of support and help here, I think this website should be required reading for all potential WLS patients !! Sometimes the voice of experience is better than anything you' read in a book or a handout, just my opinion. Hope things go well for you, its the best thing I could of ever done for myself ! Good luck !!!
