I'm finally approved and have a date...August 15....Yayyy!!!  I think?  I have such mixed emotions.  I want this so badly, but the unknown really scares me.  Looking forward to better health and a long life with my kids and hubby, but scared of the pain of severing my life long relationship with food.  But, I know I can do this especially with some of the great folks I've met here on the board and in the Crofton support group.  Kim : )

Congratulations!!  The unknown is really scary, that is true, but the end result is the important thing to focus on!

Congratulations on getting your date.  Just out of curiosity, when did you start your journey?

Thanks for all of encouragement.  And to the question about when I started my journey...officially, I started in January, but I've been considering this off and on for about 10 years.  It didn't take very long to get through the 6 months...it went incredibly fast.  Kim : )

Congrats!! This time will just fly by. Don't blink, your day will be here before you know it. The mixed emotions are so normal. I didn't have them, but NOW sometimes I do. I thought since I wanted it so bad, it would be so easy to change my habits. I will say it is worth changing the habits, but it is a lot of work to do so. We're all here for you, and know you'll do just great!
Hugs!
