LUNCHEON: I am taking a BIG step tomorrow and ..................
wearing an itsy bitty, little bitty, black, designer dress (not spider). (My first ever in my LIFE 
) It is a size "16" fitted dress, that my best friend since I was 6 weeks-old, gave me before my surgery. (Remember, I was wearing 26/28 before surgery and at one time, 36 to 40's) She said her Mom (my Mrs. Jane) bought it for her when she lost her weight the first time (she and I are almost the same size, I am catching up, she has always and will always be wonderful support for me, I am blessed to have an 
of a friend like her). Her Mom wanted be the first to buy her, her first short, fitted designer dress. Kelly (as many of you that are close to me have heard me talk about) wanted to pass it along to me therefore, she gave it to me before my surgery. I took it out of the bag, and looked at it and laughed, I said "There is no way I will ever be able to wear this dress". She said, "Yes, I bet it will not be 4 months and you will be in it", I laughed and said; "It will not fit my right leg now, I can't imagine ever being able to wear this and if I ever "DO" get into a size "16", I doubt that I will not ever have the "GUTS" to wear one neither this short, nor this fitted". Well tomorrow, (a little over 15 weeks after surgery) you all are my "BEAUTIFUL LITTLE GINNIE PIGS" and I am going to be wearing it for you people. Please!!!! 
Tell me the TRUTH, because that is what we do on this "BOARD", and as friends, tell the TRUTH, the GOOD, the BAD, and the UGLY, that is another reason why we are all so GOOD for each other. I am a little excited, a lot scared, slightly shaking and very nervous, but I would be even more nervous if I was wearing it to work first (Who am I kidding!!!, I would NOT wear it to work first, it would just Hang in my closet!!! ). 
OH YEAH, 
forgot to mention, you will be the ones to determine if I should wear it on Monday to work or not!!! I have been home sick from surgery on my ears and still do not hear well yet. Therefore, if they do not like it at work, at least, I will not be able to hear them little 
's 
, but I expect you guys to "YELL" 
your verdict" to me at lunch tomorrow and give me the truth not talk behind my back unless the 
is just TOO good and you just can't resist!!!! 
I have done you all one favor, well two, 
shaved my legs and used my famous "Tan in a Can", so my legs will not blind 
you (from being so white), since this is the first dress I have worn that has not been down to my ankles in ........................ well............ probably.................since........ age 10.
I would NOT do this if I did not LOVE and TRUST all of you people. I truly mean this; you are all family that I have, not meaning my husband, in-laws and defiantly my WONDERFUL SON, but I do not have any other family to support me throughout these changes, therefore I depend on the support I gain from my friends I have been blessed here with. Thank You GOD!!!
By the way, my son will be "11" on May 31, 2007 and on June 1 & 2 you will need to all be praying for my husband and I, because my son is having a sleepover with 5 friends for his birthday and they are all coming!!! I agreed to allow this thing to start at 6:30 on Friday night and end at 6:00 pm on Saturday, WHAT WAS I THINKING!!!!!!!!!!!!
(
Any volunteers to help out???????????? 
) , maybe the 
ness is catchy?????!!!! WLS sure has given me energy, but made me really STUPID!!! (This is not a "WARNING" in any of the handbooks or information that I read on this surgery)
I am also bringing a very special guest tomorrow, she really wants to meet all of you and I know that you will all make her feel very special as well. Not to mention, understand why I have become so very fond of her, so quickly.
I cannot wait to see ya'll at lunch, although I may be so excited, I may not be able to eat. I do want some pictures, so do not let me leave without taking some.
