Sane and secure pen pal needed.

I am an educated white woman in my 40's and I am starting on my weight loss journey...I have an RNY scheduled for 08-01-2011 and I am looking forward to being healthier for my kids. I don't mind who writes me but I do have a very busy schedule including work, grad school and 2 kids. I need someone who can understand if I cannot always reply right back, is NON JUDGEMENTAL....and is seriously willing to walk along this journey with me.

Hello Penny,

My surgery is scheduled for July 21st. My doctor doesn't require a pre-op diet. My stats are similar to yours. I am in my late 40's with grown children and one left at home. I can understand your hectic schedule. I would like to share stories and support each others journey. Good Luck!

Hi everyone

I am scheduled for VSG on 7/28 and I am thrilled!  My husband will be banded about a month after I have my sleeve.  We have a wonderful 2 year old and decided that we wanted to be healthy for him and one another.  We are very excited.

I am a psychotherapist in Florida, and like several of you mentioned, am very busy, but I appreciate the value of peer support.  There is really nothing like sharing with people who are in your same boat.

I started my pre-op yesterday and was tickled tonight when the scale showed 6 lbs down. 

Looking forward to getting to know you all.

Hi everyone, just checking in.

This is the week!  I can't believe it's here.  I go in on Thursday at 2 for surgery at 4.  I'm stoked.  I've lost 13 on the pre-op diet so far.  It hasn't been easy but I have been very proud of myself for sticking to it, no cheating at all. 

Just getting a little nervous before showtime....  hope everyone is well.
