I had my FIRST WOW moment today!! I was going through clothing I had in my closet looking for something to wear to take my son to the recruiters and saw a pretty sun dress I had bought through "Holy Clothing" (LOVE their clothes!) and wondered if I could fit into it....I COULD!! I tried another one on and though it was still a bit tight through the upper chest area it FELL down over my stomach instead of getting caught on my big belly!! I could also wear my wedge cork shoes that I haven't been able to put on in nearly three years!!

Yeah...I'm sold! I did the right thing. hehe

I am also a Newbie and in the process of doing the required 90 days that my Insurance Company requires prior to surgery. I try to come on here daily and usually just lurk but it really motivates and educates me on the RNY. I've completed the PT Class, the first Nutritionest Class, I've been to a couple of Support Group Meeting and am just getting more and more excited w/ each day. I'm hoping to have the RNY in June, w/ Dr. Keith and just trying to get myself to start eating right now and that has been the biggest struggle mentally because I know I won't be able to have most of these things once I have the surgery.

BTW Patti you looked beautiful in the Show - I was really impressed how nice it was...
