Hi Everyone:
My name is Toni and I'm 23 years old and 315 lbs. I have been heavy and depressed sense I was 9 years old. I never wanted gastric bypass because to me it was so scary to have pieces of your anatomy actually removed :frown:
I also didn't feel like I was ready for it, I didn't think I could change ... i had a lot of emotional problems. But through therapy I have come to realize that I deserve to be happy and that I'm ready to make this change in my life. I'm really excited to have this surgery. I have chosen Shasta Medical Center in Redding California to have my surgery. I have my seminar/orientation on February 5th. I just can't wait to get rolling. Any helpful information would be great.
Thanx,
Toni
