I am so thankful for finding this site

I am currently waiting for Dr. Bour's office to send in my papers. Everyday, I get on this site and feel so much better about the decision I have made. You all have helped me so much already and you don't even know me!! I hope to make many new friends through this site. I have never really been an outgoing person. It is so good to know that there is a place where I can go for support and not have to worry that people are going to think that I don't matter, because I'm fat!!! Thank you...thank you....thank you!! Melissa

Melissa....the waiting is so hard!! But just hang in there, it will happen for you!! This is a great place for support, we are glad that you found it too!! I work in Greenville, so let me know if I you ever need anything!!! Hugs, Dianne

The waiting definitely sucks!! Hopefully you'll be posting next week that you've been approved and you have a surgery date! Good luck!

WE'RE ALL IN THE VERY SAME BOAT HERE, MS MELISSA. WE'RE SO PLEASED THAT YOU HAVE FOUND A COMFORTABLE PLACE TO LAND HERE WITH US. BEING FAT IS NOT WHO YOU ARE ... IT'S JUST A TEMPORARY CONDITION & YOU ARE TO BE COMMENDED FOR NEVER GIVING UP & WORKING TOWARDS A HEALTHY LIFE! GOD BLESS YOU DAWN & NICK
