Cool both of us on the 5th,Its right aorund the corner.

Thank you soo much.Its been a hard fight.

Hi Pamela, I think there are alot of us that feel that way....completely. Along with being scared of the surgery and feeling like --Will I be the one this doesn't work on. But we all are here and can support each other. We will be fine and get thru it. It is just a period of time that will become a memory quickly. The changes we are all about to have are life changing and in a year we will be much smaller! We have lots of wows to come. And that is very exciting. Just take some deep breaths and you will be fine! Hugs, Cathy

Pam, I don't know how to get through this part. It was probably one minute after I found out I was approved that I started worrying! I know exactly how you feel. I don't "want" to have to do this, but the thought of not doing it, and steadily gaining more weight is simply not an option, I am miserable. From what I've read on these boards, the worst part is the healing, and the first few months. Hopefully the weight coming off will feel much better than the food tastes and eventually we will be able to eat good food, just not nearly as much, and thats what we want right? I'm here for you if you need me! Brigette

Congradulations!!! You'll get there a few days before me. Mine's Feb. 5th. Charlotte
