Counting down the hours. I have two and a half hours before I need to leave to go to the hospital. I wanted everyone to know how grateful I am for all the well wishes. I just wish the butterflies in my stomach and my shaky hands would go away.
Thank for all the cares and concern!!!

P.S. I not only made it to 365lbs but I beat that and made it to 359lbs. In total I am down from 383lbs that's 24lbs to the losers side of the bench!!!!

Good luck - the start of this new life is so exciting. You're in great hands, I adore Dr. Steele. And I know she's going to be so proud of you for losing the weight pre-op - it's a big deal for her.

I'll keep you in my thoughts today - you're going to do great.

Fear is the lock and laughter the key to your heart

I wish you much luck with your surgery and your recovery. Try to think positive and know that you are getting ready to be reborn. There is so much life ahead of you. Hugs to you and good luck. You have done well and I am sure you will do wonderful once you have the surgery. That 24 pounds is a great start.

Best of luck sweetie! You'll be a big old LOSER before you know it! Now get ready to walk, rest, sip and repeat. And have someone let me know when you are in your room and recovering so I can let everyone here know!!
