Topic: RE: Getting Nervous
I agree with Shannon and Janet... you have to do this for YOU.
My husband is very supportive but I havent even told my mother or my in laws because I knew they would be jerks about this.
Im going through this process because its something Im doing for MYSELF. No one else lives in my skin but me. Only I will benefit.
Only YOU will benefit and youre all that counts!

Topic: I MADE IT!!!
I am officially 3 days post op now. I am still really sore. My surgery took about 2 hours due to complications. Dr had to do through about 4 inches of muscle on my left side but I am feeling pretty good considering. I want to thank everyone who has shown me support through this whole ordeal. You guys are wonderful. I especially want to thank my angel Jenny Carr for keeping everyone update on my progess. I will post more soon.

CLOTHING EXCHANGE: We will now have a clothing exchange at each meeting! You are welcome to bring any clothes that no longer fit you and take home some that do.
