Tomorrow can't come fast enough.  My emotions go to being nervous to sooooo excited which I am sure is normal.  I just want to thank everyone on the board.  I have learned tons on this board over the past few months and know I will keep learning too.  Thank you!!!!

I know you are nervous now, but soon it will be all over and your new life can begin.  The recovery sucks and its a long one, but it gets better everyday and one day you will wake up and say, "Wow, I feel pretty good!"

At 1 1/2 years out, I can truly say, I wish I would have done this sooner and not wasted my life obsessing about food and my weight!  For me the DS took all that crap away, and I feel pretty good everyday.

No its not perfect and there are side effects that I wish I didn't have to deal with, but you learn how to deal with it, and the side effects from food before were a lot worse!  Instead of a little gas, it was killing me!  

So, relax and have faith.  You've made a good decision, you've chosen life.  Tomorrow will truly be the first day of the rest of your life.  Good luck and I wish you a speedy recovery!  You can message me if you have any questions, and I'll do my best to answer them.

See you on the Dark Side!

I remember what that feels like. Just wait until your first "WOW" moment! One of mine was when I got out of my car without using my hands to push/pull on the door frame to get myself out
