2013: 20 Funny New Year's Resolutions
When it comes to New Year's resolutions, our family members and friends can get quite creative and even funny with what they resolve to do in the New Year. Here a few good ones I have heard along the way...Oh, and a few of my own!
1. I resolve to stop procrastinating about procrastinating!
2. I will stop sending Facebook messages and emails to my loved ones when they are in the same room as I am!
3. I will use my treadmill for something other than a place to hang my jacket.
4. I will not sit at the kitchen table in my PJ's all day. Instead, I will move my computer to my bedroom.
5. I vow to never take a laxative and a sleeping pill on the same night!

I would love to have people for support and give support to!! I am so excited about my upcoming surgery (January 28th) I have contemplated this surgery for 5 years and its finally happening. Are you doing a liquid diet? I have to do 4 weeks of Optifast 800. So far so good. I felt a little light headed today, but I heard that its because I was a sugar addict and Being on Optifast, my sugar intake has been cut by 80% and my calories are only 1200 a day. So I just need to get used to it. would love to hear from anyone with any advice!!
I just want to encourage all of you who are getting ready to have your surgery this month! Be excited. This is a new beginning for you. I contemplated this surgery 5 years ago, and I am getting ready to finally have it. You will feel better than you have ever felt. I have read that the first week we may question WTH did we just do?? but Stay strong, this too shall pass!! WOOO HOOO can't wait to catch up with everyone in February!

Hello I am Manie. I am scheduled for surgery 1/21/2013 in Greenville SC. This is my 1st post on OH and I am excited.
Hi,
new to this site. I'm hoping to have a surgery date around the 24th of this month. I'm getting so antsy and I just want to get it done. It would be nice to have some buddies with the same timing as me.
Jan 18th RNY for me, start my Opti tomorrow - Jan 2nd.
Really nervous & SUPER excited!! The nervousness seems to be taking over the excitement day by day.
