Hello there everyone!  Things have been so hectic around here I haven't been able to get on lately!  So much has happened!  My youngest has had walking pnemonia for going on 3 weeks now (with a high fever until a week ago).  I finally got her back to school last Thursday and then my DH got sick!! 

Anyhow, things have been moving so fast!!  I got approval from my insurance, called to make an appointment and was told that I had to go to a mandatory information session before I could see the surgeon.  Anyhow, there was about a 1 month wait before the next available session.  Long story short, I have a surgery date of November 20th!!!!!  I have to start my 3-week liquid diet tomorrow!!  I am so excited I can hardly contain myself!!  I am just ready to have this over with and start my new and healthy life!!  All I'm feeling right now is excitement...my hubby doesn't understand why I'm not nervous!!

Anyhow, just wanted to share the news!!

Congratulations!   You will be a loser in no time at all.

Hugs, Mo

Comparison is the thief of joy!

If we spend our time comparing our life/weight loss/body to others, we totally miss what WE have accomplished.   Keep in mind how far you have come and what you can do now that you couldn't do weeks/months/years ago.   I hate the expression " It's all good", but in this case it fits!   Wherever you are in your journey  ... It's ALL good!!!
