HI... I AM CURRENTLY WAITING FOR MY SURGERY DATE AND I HAVE FOUND THAT DIET LAND CAN BE A LONELY PLACE. I DONT REALLY HAVE ANYONE TO TALK WITH ABOUT THIS AND I THOUGHT WELL MAYBE I COULD FIND A COUPLE OF PEOPLE GOING THROUGH THE SAME THINGS I AM, THAT MAYBE WE COULD EXERCISE TOGETHER AND SUPPORT EACHOTHER. ANYONE INTERESTED???? PEACE AND LOVE BECCA

Hi Iam currently waiting for surgery date. Have to wait until I get some of my blood values in order. I am going away with 6 friends in Mid March so hope my surgery can be set for the last week of March. I am having a very hard time dieting. Have almost lost the required 10% but don't know how I will keep it up for 2 more months!! Yes, Please contact me regarding exercise/support. I have a tread mill! This is a loan from a friend and I am very grateful. Sue
