Thanks for the support!

I spent most of last nigth doing a lot of reading. Tonight I am signe up to go to a semnar at St Agnes with Dr Andrew Averbach.

My current doctor wants to put me on some meds to help start the weight loss. She seems to feel I would need to loss some before teh surgry. Also since it  would be awhile befoer it happens, it gives me a head start.

Thats a new things for me. Never done drugs stronger than a blood pressure pill.

Good job signign up for the seminar. I went to 2 before I felt comfortable with the doctor I picked and comfortable with the decision.

If you have more questions after the seminar, come back and ask. There's people form all stages of the surgery here with all different sorts of experiences :-)

Good luck and welcome!
