I have a date!

First off, you guys are great! I wish I had more time to post than I do right now... life is soooo busy for me, in fact the staff head doctor is worried about my ability to SLOW down-........ anyways! I HAVE A DATE! I am going to have surgery on August 16th. I cant belive how easy this entire process has been. I really started the process in June, when I saw my PCP for the letter! Now, I am just worried if I made the right choice..... Its almost like I cant belive that I could ever be thin, since I have no idea what its like to be..... so I talk myself into it will not completely work, or I will die. Is this normal!?! Anyways, I just wanted to share the news! Thanks for all of your posts, I dont have the time to post a lot, but I read here and there often. Michelle

Congrats Michelle!! 2 days before my birthday!! I hope everything goes wonderfully for you! Looks like your job is great, and things are looking up, huh?! Tami

Well Happy early birthddddddddday! Thank you so much for your wishes!

Michelle, Congrats you know I wonder for a long time if I was making the right choice . I have the same questions you have had . I have always been overwieght and would not know what it would be to be (fit). Now that I did go through the WLS and there are a few things I would never like to repeat in the process. When I look at my two boys and my husband I know most definetly I made the right choice. Even the bigger reason it was for me I was letting life pass me by and not being out there enjoying the fun things I could be and then memoriesfor my family .So only my opion I made a great decision. I hope you can also come to that point and you will always have those questions but remember take them one day at a time.......Beth

I just want it over with- so I can move on...... I am so tired of food consuming every hour of my life..............................Best wishes on your upcoming surgery! I want DETAILS!!!!!
