and my journey to the bench begins ... I am ready. I just need to think of something meaningful to say to my surgeon before my lights go out.  Any idea?  Thanks   ~m

Michele, you know what I told my doctor when he came to see me before surgery? We bumped knuckles and I said "Let's get this show on the road!" . Sometimes you just have to let it go and know that whatever comes out is what is suppose to come out. haha Good luck and you are in my special prayers for a sucessful surgery and a quick and pain free recovery. I am sending you love and lots of big hugs for your new life that is coming soon. Please keep us posted on how you are doing. We are going to start dusting off your seat soon. The bench is so comfy too.

                        that tells what kind of life you have lived.

Hi Michele, When I met with my surgeon before heading to the operating room, I said "Make me thin!"  He said, "It might take a few months...."  He's pretty quiet so I try to get him going. I have a friend who is an MD who says he is a hoot in the operating room!  Best wishes. You have made a good decision!

Thank you Carol.   I agree.  I think the RNY is the tool I need to take control of my weight.  I am ready for this - I just hope and pray that all goes well and my surgery is textbook.  thanks again   ~m

Aloha little sister in OFF!

How exciting your life is right now....enjoy every minute of it, because before you know it, you will be slim, trim, healthy and living a life you only dreamt about before.

I have a feeling you will think of something perfect to say just before you go under anesthesia........your joy will shine through!!

Aloha nui loa,

Maui Karen
