Topic: Aug 10th check in
I guess I posted this before but... my browser malfunctioned. I am excited about surgery. I am so looking forward to the end of shots everyday. I am also looking forward to the weight loss. I am motivated and prepared to put in some work to get the desired result. I so welcome the challenge of changing my life style. I am looking forward to a healthier and more active life style. I know that sometimes when I tell people I am having WLS they think that some how I think it will be easy or a cake walk. Thanks to OH I was able to make a decision based off of realistic information, and not a fairy tale picture that someone else painted for me. I am nervous scared but so excited to get where I am going. So I try to remember before and hopefully after surgery the quote from the marines that helped me stay motivated so many times before. "Pain is weakness leaving the body" So I say bring on the pain, the change! I am gathering every bit of the fierceness that is so much a part of my personality  and I will use it to be triumphant in my goals to reach the end of the road in my journey successful and healthier than I have ever been before. I look forward to embarking on this journey with all of you. Stay positive Believe in your self and tell the Haters to Shut up :) Mrs ZOE FLY

Congrats!  Let's hold each other's hand (virtually) and say a prayer for each other.  Proudtabaloser is the same date too.

High 5, Proudtabaloser!  We'll be on the loser's bench at the same time.  I hope we both come through surgery well, lose at unprecedented rates, pounds just dripping off both of us as we walk, and we say, "Why didn't we do this years ago??"  It may not be quite so easy, but at this stage we can hope, right?

Yeah, funny people who are heavy don't have mirrors, don't use words like "morbidly obese" and are embarrassed by it...almost like if we don't mention it people won't notice.  Maybe we won't be heavy for long :)
