WELL I got the phone call yesterday from the surgeons office, saying that they had my Surgery date!!! WEll at my Decision visit I asked the surgeon what kind of time frame we were looking at and he said April!! UGH go figure! Well i was  for the nurse and she said MARCH 5th!!!!!
OMG i had to make sure i heard her right....LOL i thought OMIGOSH that is less than a month away...LOL HOLY CR*P, that is SOON!!! I was sooo excited y'all I couldnt see straight! NOTHING thru this entire process has moved along fast, it has being alot of wait wait wait!! And it honestly felt like it was NEVER going to happen!! FINALLY the light really is at the end of the tunnel!! My pre-op is Feb. 18th and i start my liquid diet Feb. 20th...All I can say is WOW i thought i had at least 2 more months...but BRING IT ON...lol I am soo ready & sooo very excited!! YAY for March 5th and the day that is going to change my life

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!!
