Big day tomorrow!
Surgery is tomorrow. Immediate family is still completely against this...they even got to my dad, who was on board at one point. I feel good about my decision but I am needing some positive vibes and prayers from you all to block the bad energy I am getting from them.
That's all friends and thanks

Good luck tomorrow! I'm so sorry you don't have much support on this decision - but remember, you are doing this for YOU, not them. You are giving yourself an amazing Christmas gift that will help you become a healthier, happier person. It is great to have support but in the end, this is your journey and you're going to make it (and kick ass!) with or without them. You can do this. :)
See you on the Loser's Bench tomorrow. We'll all be waiting to hear from you. :)

Thanks for that...big hugs!!

Do this for you!
Think positive and don't look back. You are about to start an amazing new path. Family and friends care for our health but sometimes they are afraid of change too. By now, you know what this decision involves and have chosen to go ahead anyways. This is going to be one of your greatest gifts to yourself so Merry Christmas!
