Finally I have a date!

I am so looking forward to this. I was geared up to get this done this summer but the insurance took a while and of course the nothing good ever happens in a hurry. The waiting is difficult. I have been working on this since February. Once I make up my mind to go for something it is difficult to be patient. Well wish me luck. I plan on dropping 180 lbs so it will be a long road. Good luck to everyone else here. I will stop by from time to time and post on my experiences. Joe

Good luck Joe.I had surgery September 30th 2002 and have lost 120 pounds, only 15 pounds from Doctors goal, and to be honest I am perfectly happy at 150. For once in my life my life my drivers licience has my real weight on it. I feel great and I'm sure this time next year so will you. Take Care, Christi

Good luck to you Joe. I share your date of September 15th. You are right, the waiting is murder. I've been huge for so long and now that I've made the decision to have the surgery, I want it now...I want to get rid of this hideous body now...I want to start my new life now. Guess we're all in the same boat and just have to wait our turn. Hope all goes well with you. Darlene
