Just to say Hi !!

I just found this forum and wanted to check in and say hello.
I'm still pre op and just got the date for my FIRST doctor visit. its the 28th and i am very excited about it. my bmi is 52 im 5' 5" 324lbs. never thought i would feel comfortable enough saying or typing that. i appreciate the posts here. it really does help to read about other ppl's journey. so thank you all for sharing.
if there are any okies here that use dr. fisher i would love to chat with you.

i too just found this forum, i am pre-op with surgery to be 10/19 with rny; my bmi is 58, i'm 5'3" and 325#; i am anxiously awaiting being on the other side, and right now can not even do anything else but be on this site!!!

Welcome!  This is my favorite forum on OH.  Good luck with your journey.

Welcome to the forum and congrats on beginning your journey. I am also preop and going through the same office as Dr Fisher. Do you have your seminar set up yet? Mine is tomorrow--would be cool to find someone elose off this site going as well. Take care--Kim

hi Kim. i already went to dr fishers seminar. i go to my first consultation on the 28th . i get to see the dietian then also. maybe we can meet up at the support group meeting? let me know which one you plan on going to. welcome to the journey. brenda

thank you all for the welcome. (((hugs)))

Welcome! its really a great forum. I found a lot of information here and we have all been there when it comes to surgery and losing a lot of weight... I sure as heck didnt start at 200 like some people (I can only dream to be down to 200!).

It seems overwhelming but there are so many sucess stories here that you will find to keep you motivated!

Good Luck!
