Just wanted to introduce myself
Hello all my fellow Feb. surgery daters! My name is Robin and I had Surgery on Feb. 23, 2009 . I am new to this forum so I figured I would put a post out there and get to know everybody. Also just wondering how the weight loss is going for people who had surgery about the same time I did because it feels like my loss is very SLLLOOOW. lol any thanks for your time!
