Got a date!

It's finally happening. My surgery is scheduled for March 2. I cannot believe it's almost here. All the hard work was so worth it. I am so excited and nervous at the same time. I'm grateful to all of you who share your stories, the good and the bad and I can't wait to see you all on the loser side! 

Congrats Shannon -- Hope you will attend one of the Toms River OCWLS Support Group meetings in the future.  We have a great group and meet the first Friday of each month at Community Medical Center, Aud A at 7pm.  Next meeting is Friday, March 6 which may be a bit soon after your surgery, but if you feel up to it -- come on down.  If not, our next TR meeting is Friday, April 3rd.  Here's info on our group.

The Ocean County Weight Loss Surgery (OCWLS) Support Group is a peer-to-peer group which is open to individuals who have undergone various types of weight loss surgery, or to those who are anticipating or planning this kind of lifestyle change.  Supportive family members and friends are also welcome.
