Hi All, Im New Also

Hi Everyone, My name is Corey,I am 19 years old, and I live in London, Ontario, Canada. I just started getting into these forums, um, My RNY surgery is scheduled for Monday the 21st of August. I just wanted to see what everyone was upto and how everyone was? Corey

On Monday, wow, that's only 5 days away! How are you taking it, are you nervous? Mine isn't for another 5 weeks and I'm nervous, sorta You will definetly have to tell me how it goes for you, so I know what to expect! ^_^ -Liz

Hi Liz, YEAH!!!, Im ridiculously nervous, I actually had to call the nurse that did all my PAT, and ask her what the results to it all showed, and if she would tell me if I was a risk, and to my peace of mind, she said No, You're not a risk, ur extremely healthy and ur young, and that I was gonna breeze through this. Wow was that a relief...I was so happy. I definately will keep ya updated... Corey

Hi Corey I just wanted to say good luck with everything, your gonna look awesome. I 'll keep you in my prayers and thoughts. Make sure you keep us posted on your progress. And I know just what you mean, I dropped out at the beginning of 11th. Except people didnt make fun of me to my face. Everyone was scared of me. I lifted weights all semester for gym, And I was stonger then most of the guys. even though I'm fat I have a lot of muscle! Well be careful, take it easy...bye bye

THanks very much, for your thoughts and prayers, I never did gym, I was too socialphobic for that, I just took the health classes so I still managed to pass... thanks again

Hey guys, I was reading everyone's posts, cuz I'm lame like that, and WOW I found a lot of similarities I had to drop out of school too. Not just once, but twice. First in Spring 2003 (9th grade), took a year off, returned for 10th grade (a year late), started 11th grade, but BAM quit in November 2005. If everything had gone as planned, I would have graduated last May. I guess not...lol. So now I am doing an online high school thing to get my diploma. I droppped out for much the same reason you guys did. Other students were terrible to me, (didn't help I was the only fat person in the whole school! hehe) The teachers werent much better either. Not to mention the whole depression thing, and the "I'm afraid of other people" thing. Yep. So I know exactly how you guys feel!

I know I had the same problem especially with my gym teacher, he was a real, ahem, and I just wanna go back after this is all over or see some of the people that made fun of me and say "Omg Look At Me, I managed to lose a Whole crap load of weight and you are still that same ugly piece of (yeah) you always were with the same ugly heart" yeah, lol...I have a bunch of plans for a few people incase I "run into" them...but I cant wait to show people, I wanna see what their reaction will be...
