I can't believe I am posting this!!!

Love you, girl! I know it's gonna be a hard road ahead for me, but I am thankful that I have you there to navigate it with me. Thanks for being my angel. xoxo Pean

How very exciting!!!! Couldn't have asked for a better Christmas present. :)

Amen, sister! I hear that! xoxo Mare

This is so awsome.  I know your journey has been exxhausting.... We need to have a party for you because you deserve it. 

Party? Sounds good. Always up for one. Slumber party perhaps? LOL 'Cuz I really am exhausted. I'm sure you all could use some rest too, no? lol

HOORAY!!!!!  I'm so excited for you!  Congrats and rest up! Nikki

Thanks Nikki, I plan on resting for the next 3 weeks. Hybernating, if you will...

Oh My Gosh Mare!  I am so excited for you!  I am going to save you a seat on the Loser's bench right next to me!  I can't wait!  I am really excited for you!  Congratulations!  You deserve this.  When will your surgery be.  I've just completed my 4th day of my liquid diet and have 10 more to go.  I'm getting ready to go to bed soon.  That way I won't have to think about my stomach growling!  I'm so proud of you!  Love, Bobbie

Hey Bobbie - I am going to Dr. Harris on Jan. 8th. Will have a date then. Been doing a very low carb diet since they notified me last week to come in today. I figured it must be good news if they wanted to see me. Want to be prepared for whatever comes my way, so I took it into my own hands to prep. I know you're gearing up for your surgery. When is it?  WAIT FOR MEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!! LOL (I am so psyched!) xoxo Mare

Mare, I know you are Psyched! Good idea to do that low carb diet. The more you do on your own the better. I know that you already know that really this whole process is mostly mental. Alot of mental preparation for the surgery and the diet. I sure hope we are ready. My surgery is 12/28/07. I'm on the liquid diet now and it is really a mental thing. I'm not hungry, I just want food. Mental, Mental, Mental. I just have to keep telling myself that I want to be healthy more than I want any type of food. Food is only to help me live. I want to be albe to enjoy living. And the foods that I have chosen in the past, were not the foods that were the best choice for me to help me enjoy my life. Every day that I make it one more day of this liquid diet, I feel a sense of accomplishment. I know you feel a sense of great accomplishment finally getting an approval! I applaud you! I can't wait to be sitting on the Loser's Bench with you! Just think, this time next year, You and I will be Sexxy Little Santa Babes!!!!!!!!!! Love, Bobbie
