Jennifer, Thankyou so much for your best wishes. I hope and pray all goes well tomorrow for you in surgery. You're the 1st person to have the same Doc and be so close to me. I'd love to keep in touch. I don't know that you'll feel up to it, but, if you are at the computer before next Thursday April 30th, send me a message. I'd love to hear how it went before i go in for my Open RNY next Friday. Best wishes!! Bryn in Jamestown

It's been a year since I decided to pursue having the gastric bypass surgery. I have met with a dietician, had the psych eval, psych test, history of failed diets, recommendations from other docs,diagnosed with sleep apnea, and attended a support group. This web site, obesity help.com helped me tremendously to answer my questions, meet others going through the same process and learn from others who have experienced the procedure already. I am now approved, met with Dr. Howell at MeritCare in Fargo and have my surgery scheduled for April 23rd. I am getting myself prepared at work and I have an excellent family support system that will help me with my recovery. I thank God for this procedure, and I look forward to better health and for my outside to match how good my inside is. Pray for me.
