when the sun comes up you'd better be running.

I'm doing wonderfully! Had my gall bladder out in August (a typical side effect it seems, but easy surgery). All  labs have been great. Off blood pressure meds and cholesterol meds at 3 months post op. 92% of excess weight is gone, and 14 lbs. to goal.  

It really is a life style change,  nutrition and  excercise become a focus.

Your day is coming! I remember the anxiety approaching surgery, but know that it will be great. I'm excited for you!!!

Keep me posted!

Kathy

Hey Kathy,

Congratulations on your success! 

My surgery is scheduled with Dr. Landers on Monday, February 8.  This is a decision that I've been considering for a couple of years, and now the day is near and I'm excited to start my new journey, and cannot wait to be and feel healthier.

Thank you for thinking about us.

Sure.  Will do.  I'm getting a little nervous, and excited, at the same time.  I just can't wait until it's over. 

Hugs to you,
Rose
