My Date... and First posting ever!
Welcome to the OH family. That is how it feels to me. I have only been involved for 3 weeks. My surgery is May 10th. I am going through the emotional roller coaster right know and it has really helped to have OH available to chat with other going trough the same thing. Take advantage of all there is available. Feel free to email me if you feel lost or have any questions. My sister had the surgery down in Portland at OSHU 16 months ago. She lost 247lbs and still losing.
Good luck!
