honeyg317 107 Posted September 9, 2013 Hi! This is my 1st post here. I am a 44 y.o. married mom of 4. I am in the very beginning stages of this process. I actually have my 3 hour initial appointment today! I'm excited and nervous about this. So, I just wanted to "introduce" myself. I'm sure I will have questions after my appointment. Looking forward to talking with and supporting you all. 3 Erica2013, heatonsgal and MDozier reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JoiaRox 430 Posted September 9, 2013 Welcome to VST, and welcome to your new journey! You'll find that there is a TON of useful information on this site (use the "search" feature to find topics relevant to what you want to know), but be sure to always consult with your doctor - s/he's the one that's in charge of your health...other than you, of course. Best of luck to you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MouseOnTheMile 186 Posted September 12, 2013 Welcome I think you'll find all the information very helpful (I know I have) it's nice to be able to read the good the bad and the ugly of this surgery so you can go into it with open eyes. Good luck on your journey Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
