Ok. NOW I'm excited

Next week I have my 6th (and final) nutritionist consult.  But more exciting for me is that the next day I have my meeting with my surgeon (Dr. Benn) also!!  

Now I feel like this is becoming real!  I have a newnfound sense of momentum which had been elusive over the past six months.  All of you, my friends and counselors along this path, had told me that time would fly.  While I hesitate to admit that; the time has indeed passed, and my journey to better health lies clearly ahead.

This may seem kind of unremarkable to everyone, as I've read it from countless others in the past, I know that keeping my celebration to myself would be selfish. I love wishing others well as they pass through sucessive threshholds, I am proud to be advancing along with all of you.

YAY Dan!  That is so exciting to be done w/ the 6 months, on to the consult, pre op class and surgery.  Can't wait to hear once you're approved and have your date. I won't be long now. 

And so I have to ask, did you lose your required poundage already? I know that stress was there for alot of us right up until the consult or pre op class. Just wondering if you took the
Super-Michael route and lost your weight PLUS some, or are struggling like many of us did.

Kristy,

Thanks for the note. 

I am still on my way to losing the required amount. I'm not as successful as Super-Michael, but I'm aiming for him!

Dan,

Yep, this is an exciting time.......Soon you'll be on the bench with the rest of us.......

Good luck, Kelly

Kelly,

Thanks for your kind words!  I've learned much from having read your posts over the past many months.  I hope things continue to go well and even improve!!

Dan

Time surely does fly as you're heading toward the rest of your life!  CONGRATS on the passage of time!!  ()  And HERE'S  to being another day closer to your re-birth!!!

YAY YOU!

Darla,

You're right: "cheers" to being a day closer!!  I assume that we're raising glasses of high protein, low carb drinks, not beer, right?!?

Of course.  That goes without saying.
