Hello im new here and im having my first eval on may first and im so worried but yet excited. Im 29 years old i will turn 30 in july and i have been married for 2 years. I am 5'2 and i weigh 477pounds im so tired of being this way and my doctors have all said surgery is my only option. So i am starting the process and im scared worried and excited.

babydoll83 just remember that this may and is scary but it it very exciting! I am 28 and had surgery April 4th. There were times that I thought about waiting on the surgery but I say down and weighed the options. I have tried several other weight loss methods but none o them seemed to work for me. This is the best decision to begin a new chapter in your life. Don't let anyone else discourage you along the way. I have had several people tell me I "don't want to do this." But living the way I was, was miserable! This was something I did not only for myself but my family! Good luck in your journey. And any time you feel discouraged by someone who simply doesn't understand this forum is a great outlet for inspiration!
