The time has come....YAHOO!!!

Thanks to all of you for taking time to post such beautiful comments.  I truly appreciate such a wonderful support group....I love you all.  It is sunny here in Saint John today and I feel good.  I have a nervous belly but Im doing ok.  So excited the time has come and still can hardly believe it.  I appreciate all the prayers and wishes, I need them.  I feel at peace with my decision and am so ready to address this weight issue in a different way, I feel like Ive spun my wheels for so many years to address it then I just gave up, I had nothing more in me to give to it.  Until now, I see hope....it makes me cry to think that I just may be able to be somewhat normal, enjoy life, play with my nephew like normal aunties and see him grow up to be a man...I want that so bad it aches.  Enough tears, time to be strong.  I will send an update as soon as possible

love you all
