Hello, Im new and going thru my journey....

Hello everyone.. I'm 26 year old from MICHIGAN. I'm very gald to have other people on here like all of you. We are all on the same team, and know what we are all going thru. If you want, you can read my profile. I already met my surgeon, and have everything done. I just have to wait until i get 2 more dictations back from my DRS. They are very supportive of me to get this done b/c of my PCOS. I'm looking for people to talk too and support. email me anytime [email protected] I am so hoping I get approved! Kimberley Also anyone know on how to get a secret pal? I read about it on here just not sure whats it about? thanks!

Welcome Kimberly, We are very glad to have you here. Any questions, problems or just anything you need, do not hesitate to ask. You can email me anytime at [email protected] I will only be in this forum for the next 8 months, because I will be 30 in September..yippee freakin yeah....lol. Erin 310/220/130

Hey Kim, I have PCOS too and while there's some debate about if it really ever goes away, I'm happy to report I've had regular periods since surgery! So at least some of the symptoms are diminished with the weight loss... Good luck, Kari

Hi Kimberley! Welcome to the 20s board, I'm Lynn. This board is great and everyone is so supportive, you'll like it here, I promise! Waiting seems to be the hardest part of this whole process (at least it was for me). If you have any questions or just want to talk, email me anytime [email protected] . I had laparoscopic gastric bypass RNY here in Jacksonville, FL on August 16, 2005. At that time, I weighed 297 and now I weigh 217! This was the best decison I could have made for myself and I don't regret it for a second. Well, be sure to keep us updated on what happens. By the way, I think the secret pal thing was just for the holidays, but I'm not too sure -Lynn Lap RNY 8-16-05 297/217/140

Ok, maybe I should have read your profile first and then I would have known that you HAVE been approved for surgery! Way to go! Well keep us updated on your date. -Lynn Lap RNY 8-16-05 297/217/140
