Hi there, 

I'm currently working on settling the date for my op, but I'm expecting it to be in April this year, so I thought now was a good time to speak to some of you others who're going through the same thing, or have already done so. I imagine our support to each other is going to be invaluable over the coming months. 

I've been overweight since I went to University in 2004. I've fluctuated up and down since then, but I've never managed to get a grip of my overeating for any length of time. I came to realise (or perhaps admit) recently just how negatively the excess weight was affecting me, both physically and mentally, and that I needed to do something about it. 

So please say hi, if you're pre or post, I'd love to hear your thoughts and experiences and just generally hear from lovely people. I don't know anyone who has had gastric surgery in real life.
