Looking for a pen pal, please read.

Hello.  I am looking for a penpal for online correspondence through email.  I am brand new here as I was referred here by the physician who will be doing one of the types of surgeries on me as I have numerous health conditions and my weight is doing no good for me at all, infact making a few of the conditions worse off.  I am going to my first informational meeting next week and I am scared to death and excited all in the same emotion.  I am really looking for a pal that has gone through the process and can maybe offer some support and share their story with me.  If at all possible, if there is someone in North Dakota, that would be awesome, but not mandatory.  I am open to anyone, but someone who is willing to bear with me through a lot of questions and at the same time fun and talking about other things in life as well.  

Welcome to OH I am 3 weeks out from having a Lap RNY.  This website is absolutely wonderful.  There are many wonderful people here to help you out. I live in Ontario, Canada, so don't know if that is a problem.  I would love to have someone to "chat" with.   On OH there is a forum for each state/province that you live in.  I visit Ontario as well.  I also use the May '08 surgery date forum and have met lots of people who are going through the same things I did as we have similar surgical dates. Good luck, I would love to hear how you are doing.

Hi, not sure how many penpals you would want but I am willing if you want to.  I am in west central Wisconsin.  I read you profile, sorry you have all the medical conditions.  I see you love camping, me too!  I haven't had surgery yet, but I have learned a lot on here and would love to have someone to talk to even if just by e-mail.  I have pretty much no social life.  Send me a message if you are interested.
