New name and update

hey there everyone! Just updating...got a new name! "Phoenie" (pronounced fee nee) is a nickname that my friends called me because they heard my evil parents call me "Phoenie Weenie Jella Beanie" when i was little and it stuck ...hehehe Well, other than that...my preop is next week and surgery is still on for 2/11 yay! I have been trying to get my mind right and refocus since my friend's passing. It put some unwanted fear in my heart and I was getting off track, but I think I am pulling everything back together and remembering what this surgery can do for me, and that my situation and surgery is different. Well, thanks for listening everybody and God bless! -Phoenix

Phoenix - Best of luck on your WLS journey and God Bless! I'm sorry to hear you had a close friend pass...it's a difficult thing, made more difficult when you are about to undergo major surgery. Remember you did the research and you are strong, remain postive. Best wishes, Valerie

Phoenix, congratulation on your upcoming surgery date. It sounds like you have been through a lot. Here's hoping and wishing that you have a smooth recovery and a speedy weight loss. Good Luck.
