October 27 happens to be my handsome husband's birthday!
Thanks for the warm welcome to everyone. I plan to be around these parts frequently. I haven't decided how many people I am going to share this with in real life. It isn't that I am ashamed of WLS, it is that I don't want to have to punch someone in the throat if they give me grief about it.
Also - I really, really, really hate when someone assumes that their way of losing weight is the right way and I get real twitchy when someone says "If I can do it, YOU can do it" when they are bemoaning WLS.
