Topic: RE: Self Awareness?
I will be thinking of you on the 6th....I wish you a speedy recovery and speedy loss!  I look forward to seeing those pictures and of course your progress.  Sharing your journey will help you with the ups and the downs.

Be aware of mood changes...let your family know that hormones lurk in our fat cells and once we
shed the weight (especially quickly), we tend to go a little wacky for a bit. 

Tune in as soon as you fee up to it!  Let us all know how you are doing!

My DS surgery is tomorrow as well. I am nervous as heck. My gameplan is to ask for something to calm me down as soon as I get in there.
Good luck to all the January dates!

Hi

My date is Jan 11th also.  Looking forward to the new year with a brand new start.  Not nervous, just excited.  My family is very excited too, except the son (the baby) doesn't like Mom to change.  Wishing you all the best.  Will say a prayer for you.

Yeah! We are only a day off from one another. My date was pretty fast too. But I have been ready since I made this decision!
You will be fine....stay on OH, read and ask questions. Get to know people, it has been so good for me.
See you on the other side, look me up and we can check in on each other!

My goal, to be healthy and happy. To teach my kids to grow up with better eating habits than what I have. To be a better mom/wife, to enjoy my family and learning to do things that I won't do now heavy. I want to be a happy person and not hide behind my weight!
Good luck to all of us.......we can do this together!

Hi,
I am having surgery on the 25th.  I go for my eating education this Friday.  It is exciting to know it is getting close.
Good luck with your surgery.

AJournal is an excelent idea!!  I have my surgery Wednesday and I will start one tonight! My sister is taking my "before" pictures for me tonight too!!
I will continue with my therapist also, I find their support very helpful in reminding me why I am doing this and hope I dont become ****y either, But i can see how easy that would be, having been fat most of my life!!  lolol

Yes I would like to keep in touch, too. Take care I will be thinking of you!!
