Hello

New person on the boards, just second day to chat with others having Bariatric surgeries.I live in Ontario Canada and my family is as supportive as they can be but they do not know how to deal with me LOL I mean how I am feeling, fears, questions etc. My actual surgery date has not been booked but I have seen the surgeon and gotten perscriptions. Supposed to be a couple days to hear when date of surgery is going to be.
