I am soooooooooooooo excited. I used to be one that didn't believe in bariatric surgery. I thought everyone could lose the weight if they had enough will power. But after gaining again for about the 50th time, I did my research and crossed over to the believer side. I see this now as a great tool to help those of us that continually struggle with being overweight. I don't have 100 pounds to lose, my goal is 60, but I have struggled with this same 60 for 25 years.

December 5th is my day. I am so glad I found this support page! Your stories are inspiring and educational..
