Surgery is on for Wed.

:0) I am so excited and can't wait! Tonight we are having a fish fry for our kids and grandkids to come to. I just wanted to see them all before I take off for the great wls adventure. Please pray for my daugher this week because her x will get served probably either tomorrow or Wed. and I will be out of town. I really feel like God has all things under his control tho. I am now going to confess to each and everyone *****ads this what my weight is at this moment. My big sis says it is necessary for me to do this...I now weigh 272 pounds, and I am 5'8" tall. This is a total weight loss of 26 pounds since I started this journey back in January 06. (okay all you good math whiz people) yes that means I was up to 298...bu****ch out world...it soon will come down and I will be on my way to a healthier life. I cant wait. So friends, please, remember my daughter this week and her sons, and if you think of it on Wed around 9am, say a little prayer for my surgery and a quick and healthy recovery..Thanks to you all! Sugar

I will remind everyone on Wed at 9 to pray for you dont worry. and tell Rick he better call me as soon as he knows you are out of surgery and in recovery...Love you bunches and cant wait for us to be the three thin sisters instead of 2 fat and one thin. lol. Me

Sugar, You are already on my prayer lists for wed. Where is your surgery? I am glad you listened to your sister and confessed up. Believe me you are in for a journey and you will feel so different soon. It was the best thing that happened to me this last year. God bless you and keep you. If you were having it in Sedalia, I would be there wed. as I am off. God bless. Colette

Sugar, You and your daughter and grands are on my prayer list already!!! I can't wait until you start to melt away. You're in for the time of your life. You've done so well already that I know you'll be losing like crazy. You know I'm keeping you close in my heart and praying for a speedy recovery. Try to enjoy the time in St. Louis and come home to us soon rested and on the road to health. Hugs, Lana

AUNTIE SUG ((((((HUGS))))) I am proud of you. I am 5'3" and weigh 325# so you have nothing to hide girl. I told the drivers liscense bureau they can put anythihg up to but not over 299# on my card and that is what they did At that time I was where you are. So I do know how you feel.Deb. D. husband was talking today about how calm she was going into surgery. I told him it is such a relief to get this far that we get to relax and just be giddy about finally seeing the light at the end of the tunnel.Take care and I am looking forward to seeing all you skinny gals this summer.

Dear Sug, You will definitely be praying for you, your daughter and the grandbabies. It will be such a pleasure to share the losers bench with you....of course, your sister will probably want YOU sitting by HER-but she can hog you all she wants when others cant, so sit by me!!! (LOL)....And Sug, I am so happy for you. You have been through a lot, and some extra hoops, but the wait is almost over-you take care and we will be praying for your safe surgery and SPEEDY recovery...besides, gonna take you up on that offer to help me when you are feeling better. Love and best wishes to you. Love, Janet

I'll be thinking of you and keep you in my prayers. I want to thank you again for replying to my post, the responses really made a difference. Now I will say how much I weigh....my husband didn't know until a week ago. I am 5'4" and weigh.....................266. I was sick when I got on the scales and looked. I knew I had gained but not that much. I'm more positive since I've joined this group. Thanks to everyone! Trudy

Good Luck Sugar!!!!!!! Your in my prayers.....Hopefully I wont be far behind you
