And I could NOT be happier!

What a ride this is!!!

My life just keeps changing and changing. I LOVE IT.

I saw my surgeon thursday and told him that I am going to skydive this summer. He said he has always wanted to skydive but is afraid of heights. After talking for a while, I think he is going to do it with me!!! How exciting!!

Thanks to everyone here for all of the support!

How exciting! This is what it's all about. I am getting banded on March 8th and I am really looking forward to doing things like this. It's such an exciting world we live in, and just can't wait to take advantage of it!

I love to read posts like this, It is so encouraging. I was banded on 1/21/11, I am also afraid of heights, but I told my kids I will go parasailing with them on vavation in July. So exciting and scary at the same time. I'm hoping my fare will go away with my pounds.

How great!! I went skydiving in Dec. I, too, hate heights and flying, but did fine. I thought that "first step" thing would be horrible but it really wasn't. If they take video I suggest you get one. You will love it. The closest thing to feeling like you have wings. LOL Enjoy!!

Wow, Steph! That is so fun! I'm glad Maria responded, because I was thinking... there was someone that just did go skydiving. Please take pics etc when you get to go. Congrats!
