New Here
Howdy all. My name is Teri and I am new here. I have my first appointment with my doc on May 28 and they "say" I should have my surgery in June or July.

Sigh. I am nervous about the lifestyle change but I am looking forward to a healthier me.

Just wanted to greet everyone so no one wondered where the crazy lady came from as time moves on.

We'll from one crazy to another welcome. I'm fairly new also, don't have a surgery date yet, but I should be getting close. Any change is scary, but this is for the best. Congrats on your decision.
