Today my DH and I are celebrating our 44th wedding anniversary. WOW! I lacked 3 months of being 19 when we got married and hubbie was just past 18. Fools rush in.....

AND this is the 3rd anniversary of beginning the process toward wls. I announced to my family at Thanksgiving dinner that I was planning on surgery but didn't know what type. I thank God often for the nudge that sent me on this path.

Congrats! Both are amazing milestones...looks like you sort of robbed the cradle a bit??  My hubby and I were 17 and 19, we're coming up on 46 years.

Thank you all and congratulations on all of your milestones, too. When we married in 1968 it wasn't uncommon for people to marry right out of high school and those of us that went to college were often doing it just until we got married. Ahhh, the bad old days.

Woo hoo, best two decisions you've probably made in life, so far?? Here to 44 more years of happy matrimony and hope that your WLS journey goes smoothly and easily from now on! I know for me every Thanksgiving since has been totally different, everyone else with a huge plate full and me looking at them like "are you crazy, how can you eat that much?" LOL

Hope you have a great Nov!!
