Hello everyone :biggrin2:

I have been reading blogs on here since I made the decision to get the surgery. I am not sure I would have found my Dr. without this site. I am going to Dr. Kirshenbaum and am very excited! His staff has been so helpful, I have yet to talk to him but will shortly. The closer it gets to the date the more nervous I am becoming. I am starting to worry about slipping, port issues, soreness....and so on. It is all worth it right? :biggrin:

I think I am needing the comfort of people who have already gotten the surgery...any advice on anything please let me know. Thank you, have a great day.

Cheers...Jill

Dr. K did my surgery last month! He's great, good luck and welcome

Hello my daughter is 19 years old and weighs about 230 pounds. She has tried every diet in the known universe, without success. I would like to talk to people in their teen or early 20's and parents of young adults, and get feed back on if this is a good idea and how people who have had the surgery are doing. Thanks, dgardner
