    Default First Post - Hello

    Hi all

    I am 65 and preop for Gastric Sleeve just finishing my 6 month requirements for insurance. Probably will have a date in June. Went to my first support group this week and it was nice to meet some people face to face as I don’t know anyone personally who has had this surgery.
    Looking forward to asking questions and maybe making new friends.

    Thanks,
    B J
