Guest guest Posted August 3, 2004 Report Share Posted August 3, 2004 I'm new as well. I've been reading everyone's messages and am finding all the comments to be very comforting.....knowing you all have been or will be going through WLS. I am pre-op jumping through the hoops still but nearing the end. I will be having my surgery at UCLA medical center in September. I'm anxious. If I could have it done tomorrow I would jump at the chance!!! Through the month of August I will be attending " classes " at UCLA - Intro, pre-op, nutrition, post-op.......I can hardly wait....my first class is this Thursday!!! > >Reply-To: Gastric_Bypass_Family >To: <Gastric_Bypass_Family > >Subject: RE: I'm new!!!! >Date: Tue, 3 Aug 2004 14:36:12 -0500 > >Jenise, > >Welcome.
