New here first post

I just joined.  I have been through all of the pre-op claases, diet, meetings, approvals and just about everything else.  I finally have a meeting with the surgeon next week and if everything looks good I should have a date set.  I'm down about 30 pounds from when I started all of this.  I have scratched and clawed to this point.   I am a 49 year old male and started this at about 315lbs.  I am at about 285 now and am excited to move forward.  I have been reading the men's forum posts for a while and have found them helpful.   I thought I would join and say hello to all and get involved.

Guessing here that you drive a Dodge 3/4 diesel?

Welcome to our happy corner of OH.  Little sluggish here during the week.  Lots of good support and an a genteel ass whopping if need be.

yup I have a dodge and love it.....

As the saying goes, "I'd rather be cummin' than strokin'!" 

You will find lots of good info here. I am new to this place as well. welcome 

Welcome.   Hope your date is set soon....mine is March 18th.  I meet with the surgeon tomorrow along with the preadmission testing.  The waiting did drive me a bit batty at times...but it all happens eventually.  Good luck!

Good Luck next week!

Welcome and good luck.  The Sunday weigh ins are great for accountability and tracking yourself.
