Losing It With Lydia Facebook Page

Hello Everyone.  My name is Lydia and I am new to this PA forum.  I was recommended to check it our by a fellow WLS friend and supporter.  I would love to connect with everyone on their journeys through the WL process.  I have a surgery date for June 8th and am both excited and nervous with a BIg case of the What If's right now.  But I know it is a new beginning for me and that not only would the weight loss help me but it would be benefical in helping to reduce and or eliminate some other medical problems I have that are only complicated by my weight.  I have choosen to make a Facebook Page as well to document my journery with family and friends near and far.  It is also a place I would like to contect with fellow WLS individuals.  So check it out if you like.  Looking forward to getting started in the forum.  Have a great weekend all!

Welcome, Lydia, and the best of luck on your forthcoming journey.  I used Dr. Holland, too.  I will tell you that he knows his stuff, and I think you'll be pleased.  Have you gone to the St. Luke's support group?  I haven't been there yet, but hope to go in the future.  I will pray that your journey goes well, and will think of you on June 8th.

Lydia,

Welcome to the PA Forum, you have landed in a very good place for support along the road you are traveling.  Again, welcome and your friend sent you to the right place.

Take care, Laureen

Welcome!!! So glad that Lisa told you about us. We love to meet new people to share this journey with. So ask questions, share thoughts and wows, make observations, whatever you need. Good luck with everything.

WOW!  Thanks for all the support and kind words from everyone!  I cannot believe the response!  And YES LISA YOUR THE GREATEST!!!! I am flad I finally decided to check out the forum with a little nudging from Lisa :)

I am getting closer to surgery and I am both excited and nervous.  I think my biggest fear is still with making it through the actual procedure.  If that happens and I kno it will then everything else should be a piece of cake!! 

I am sure as everything comes into more focus I will have a ton of questions.  Thanks again everyone and look forward to chatting some more.
