I just received my surgery date for June 5th and I would like to begin chronicling my journey. Does anyone have recommendations for a free blog site? I would like to add pictures too. I've never blogged before, but I want to start so I can look back on my progress, especially during the days I am sure I will struggle.

Thanks. Good luck to you too. I thought about just doing YouTube videos, but I write better than I speak. I tend to ramble when speaking. I use the backspace A LOT....you can't do that when you talk! I want to be able to embed pictures or videos. I am still searching.

Wordpress is good. I've also used Tumblr for blogging.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
