Topic: September 10th
Hi Everyone. My date is September 10th. I am looking for some friends who are going though it the same time I am. I am so excited and so nervous I cant sleep. Every night I'm rolling and rolling back and forth. My Husbands about to smack me! LOL I sit here and keep thinking, how did I let myself get to this point, and is this going to finally work. I have lost over 400 pounds in my life. Can you beleive it! 400 pounds! Ive also gained about 450 pounds in my life...lol I want to be healthy, I want to be happy, I want to move, and not be tired. Most of all, I see my daughter and think when will she start to be ashamed of me. I never want that to happen.
So if anyone is interested, let me know.
To all the September Starters....GOOOOOD LUCK AND BREAK A LEG!
Its the beginning of a new life for us all!!!!!!!!

Aren't the before and after photos amazing!? Everyone looks younger and happier, not to mention thinner and healthier! And just think.....Before long....one of those sets of photos could be YOU!!
Your pre-op was easy! Mine was nearly 4 hours by the time it was all said and done. but I had to do one preop at the doc's office, then another at the hospital.
I know for my preop I can also do low fat high protein things like cottage cheese, yogurt, and of course protein shakes. And "one normal meal" a day....yep, i just had a spaghetti and meat ball lean cuisine for lunch. I was out of milk or I would've had a banana shake. the banana shake would've been tastier, but at least I had something to chew! :D
So you're now two weeks out? From today! Congrats! It'll be here before you know it!

Topic: One week...
HOLY FRIGGIN COW!
I've got two days of work remaining (the remainder of today, half day Friday).
I'm going to the Zoo Saturday.
I'm hitting Crystal Bridges museum Monday (I hope!)
I bowel prep Tuesday.
I take the next step in changing my life Wednesday. 5:30 AM. Yeah, i'm a nerd and will probably be at the hospital about 12:03AM. haha
Any last words of wisdom? I know we're all still pre-op, but....perhaps someone has some thoughts.
I am so stinking excited for every single one of us on this board. Not just this board, but this site! Seriously. Wow!
So totally blessed to be getting another chance at this game called life. Really....it's like I've gotten the card to change professions, but I'm changing lifestyles COMPLETELY. I'm ready. I'm worth it. And SO ARE YOU!
hope you're ready!

You're not the only one having a 9/11 date! Jennifer C posted earlier that she's got that date, too! You'll be in it together. Lots of positives coming out of that date for this group!!
Congrats on your date and that date was the beginning of a lot of new lives before. You at least know yours will be a positive new beginning!!
