Congrats! That's my date, too! :-) It will be here before we know it!

Start Weight: 245 Removed my monthly totals, because for me, comparision is the thief of joy.
Dare to believe that this time will be different. You can succeed this time.

wooHOO! Congratulations! I have my surgery on 2/28/2012. Our new lives start so soon! I'm thinking about the fact I have no "skinny" clothes. I don't keep clothes that don't fit me. So I don't have a closet of size 14s (actually, I haven't been in a 14 since 1980! LOL!).

All I need is a good fitting pair of jeans. So when I drop sizes, I'll buy a new pair of jeans every new size! I'm an eBay seller (& buyer, of course), so I'll probably buy them there.

I've always ADORED fashion but I've always been heavy (since I was 6). So now I get to actually wear pretty clothes! I also need to take a tailoring course so I can make some of my own clothes.

Anyway, CONGRATULATIONS!

Warmly, Gigi

Hi Gigi and Qammar! So glad I have a couple of "surgery sisters" to go on this journey with me! I went to my final pre-op apt. today and did all my pre-admission stuff. It is REALLY happening! I have to admit, my nerves are getting a little jittery though, and I have this fear in my head that is saying to me, "what if I fail?" I suppose this is normal considering that for the past 9 years, my weight loss journey has been wrought with failure! I have to get it into my head that I do have the tools and along with this tool of surgery, I WILL succeed! Anyone else have this fear? Anyway, I hope you all are having a great day, and that your surgeries go perfectly! : )
