Waaaaaaa HOoooooooooooooo Didnt think that I would ever see a date for my surgery. Seems like a looooooooooong journey ...... I took tiny steps & went through many hoops to get a surgery date! Only thing I wish was different about all this is ::::::::::::::: Wish my surgery date was tomorrow.. Good Luck Gang See you on the other side, Jo

Congrats Jo, Bravo I know about the hoop jumping been doing it for 3 years. The best too you I will keep you in my prayers. Have a safe journey too the other side. I can't wait till I'm a "loser." My sister and you share the same date, Only she had her surgery in 2001, and has maintained her 178 lb loss, and just had a baby in May. doing the happy dance for you. Susan
