Any VSG'ers with open diaries? Open to friends?

I am in the process now, hoping for a surgery date end of Sept/early Oct. Like everyone else, I am looking to connect with pre- and post-surgery folks for support, ideas, share NSVs, etc. I am self-pay and going out of state for the procedure, so my support groups are going to have to be online! I had the Lap Band from 2007 - 2011, so I am not unfamiliar with the WLS process, but 4 years later I am back to revise to Sleeve. Would love to get a better idea of what everyone else is doing and what life will be like post surgery (especially after the initial year). Any one open to newbies as friends, sharing diaries and recipes, etc.? Thanks! Robin
