Congratulations Jami -
It will all be here before you know it and you will begin the ride of your life. I have to say that I'm probably just about done losing now, so I'm moving on to trying to figure out how to live "normally" and maintain this weight. You will be here before you know it!
We'll get a fresh seat ready on the loser's bench for you.
Wishing you every success on your journey to a healtier you!

Awww!! Thank you so much for your replies ladies 
It really means a lot to me to have people rooting me on!!
I LOVE this site! I don't think i would have been as positive about everything like I am now, if i had not spent many days reading thru OH and reading the inspirational boards and profiles!!
Barbara this is weird..LOL But when I read the part where you said you will get a fresh seat on the losers bench for ME!!! I literally just sat here and got emotional!! Yikes!!
I guess i have spent many a days reading about everyone else joining the losers bench and i just never thought I would be there too!! But YAY I guess my time has finally come and it will be soooo worth the wait, I just know it :)
Thanks again!! Y'all are so sweet!!

Jami!
I feel your excitement and positive energy through your posts and it brings me back when I finally got insurance approval and my own surgery date. I couldn't not stop smiling and wouldn't shut up!

Congratulations!!
