Hello!!

My name is Yvonne and I just wanted to introduce myself. I am 34, married with two children, and am hoping to have the RNY. I was initially ready to have the procedure in June 2005 in Pennsylvania but I became pregnant with my second child. I am now ready for the surgery, waiting is always the hardest part. I now live in Illinois, moved here last March and love it. I look forward to speaking with you all. Good Luck!!

Welcome!!!! I am usually on the singles board but I try to stop in here and check out the posts.

Hi Yvonne - Welcome to OH... Wow, I bet you were surprised to get that bundle of joy last year, congratulations. Everything happens for a reason. So your back on track and ready to move forward to a healthier you. That's great. Ask lots of questions, give support and your surgery date will be here before you know it. Enjoy the Journey, Christina

Welcome, Yvonne. I'm DeeDee. Nice to meet you!

Yvonne, hello from me also. Where abouts did you and your family put down roots? Let any of us know if we can help you. Chris

Welcome Yvonne!! Just jump in any time.

Hi everyone, thank you for your responses. We are in Mt Zion, IL. I am really happy here. My family is originally from Decatur, but through my Dad's schooling and work my immediate family ended up out on Bucks County Pennsylvania. It is really beautiful out there, but the cost of living was way too high. My husband is wonderful, when we met I was 155 and he has never said a word about my weight, which is great. We do joke around a lot and my 5 year old loves to wrestle, he and my husband also take karate together. I look forward to joining when I lose some weight. I also miss rollerblading, it is so much fun, I would probably break my neck if I tried to do it now!! I look forward to talking with all of you, thank you so much for the support!! Yvonne
