148 lbs to go and looking for support

Options
I am new to this. I need help with motivation and support. I am in the process of getting approval for a Gastric Bypass. I am looking for support of those who have had a bypass or are going to be having one soon. The way things are looking I wil be having mine in about a month. I am trying to be healthier by the time I go in so I don't have to do a total life style change the day of surgery. I have already stopped drinking soda (2 weeks now) and I am going to start going for walks every day to get stronger for the surger. If there is anyone out there who would like some support aswell through their bypass journey, I would love to be there for you. Just send me a friend request.
