Carolina_Girl0608 4 Posted April 22, 2019 (Apologies in advance if this is the wrong place to post this) Just wanted to introduce myself and thank you all for letting me troll your Q&A's the last few weeks . Was hesitant to introduce myself until my insurance pre cert came thru and I had my surgery date which I just got today!!! Been a long 6 month preparation but I am SOOO ready for this. Anywho, just wanted to say hello and a sincere thank you to everyone who has taken the time to post questions and answers. I'm nowhere near the anxiety level I was previously before finding you guys! Looking forward to sharing this journey with you all Sent from my SM-G955U using BariatricPal mobile app 2 1 FluffySaysForkIt!, Healthy_life2 and Sashac89 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
med28thmed 118 Posted April 22, 2019 CONGRATULATIONS and welcome to the group! I do the same thing Carolina Girl, I read the comments here a lot, very educational. There were many times when I felt lost, or alone? This group has helped me tremendously. Good luck on your exciting journey. 2 Carolina_Girl0608 and Healthy_life2 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
