Hello everyone!

I'm new to this forum, so I wanted to introduce myself. You can call me Neri. I'm a 26-year-old female from Pennsylvania. I've had issues with my weight since I was young, mainly due to PCOS and a few other issues. Really, I've been trying to lose weight since middle school. I feel like I tried everything! Atkins, Weight Watchers, counting calories, Nutrisystem, etc. I actually made my decision to have a bypass and started on the journey two years ago. However, between losing trust in my surgeon, changes in my insurance, and general life putting everything on hold, I ended up stopping. Now that everything is settled, I found a new surgeon and am looking forward to starting the journey once more.

Hi Neri, I’m in pa too. I’m having gastric bypass May 21st at West penn hospital. My surgeon is Dr. Marr. Hope your process moves quickly for you.
