I am new to this board . I read it all the time it gets to be habit forming. I haven't had surgery yet I weigh 400lbs, I am down some now. I just want to wish you well and offer you a hug, a smile and a prayer,not necessairly in that order also let you know you are not alone. You have many WLS family members.I felt like I needed to tell you this. Great Big Hug.Patricia Stephenson
