Newbie and looking for e-mail pen pals...(also posted on main msg board)

Hey everyone! I don't get on here as much as I would like but I have pretty busy days filled with work and 2 little cuties (they are 5 1/2 and 18 mos old)!! I also have 2 dogs, a yellow lab and a Bernese Mountain Dog and 3 cats. My house is a zoo!! My name is Erin and I am 27. I live in Alberta, Canada. I go for my initial consult on Monday Aug 8th. I am beyond excited for this. I have been overweight my entire life and I feel like this is the best option for me to gain some control. I currently weigh about 320-ish lbs. If anyone would like to be an e-amil buddy, I can use all of the buddies I can get!! Others in the same boat as me (or who once were and know how it was) will help me out. my email is [email protected] so please drop me a line. I look forward to chatting, Erin

Hey Erin! I am also from Alberta!!! Way cool! What kind of surgery are you going for? Hope to hear from you soon! my e-mail address is [email protected] Amy

Hey Erin... My name is Melissa. I had WLS 3 months ago (yesterday). Things have been going awesome for me and i havent had any complications at all! I am also down 61lbs. I am so thrilled. I started out at 312.5lbs. Drop me a line or email me with any questions you have. The more support you can get in the beginning the better. I would be lost without my support group.
