Hello everyone,
I saw my pcp yesterday and he is going to refer me for bariatric surgery! I am so happy and so ready for my journey. Let's hope all the other pieces fall into place. I'll keep you posted.

That is fantastic! I know for me just starting back in September how antsy I was while waiting for my appointments to happen. Keep the faith and stay busy while waiting, your seminar will be here before you know it :)

I am aware that I am a slow loser, comments in regards to my slow weight loss are not welcome, I have done nothing wrong, there is nothing wrong with me, we are individuals and lose weight differently.
