"it went GREAT" re-do

Very cool!  The surgeons are usually nice... they have people under them to be the bad guys.  LOL

Now that it's around the corner, and since your husband is on board to help... i would recommend you take measurements of everything you can fit a tape measure around.  It's also helpful to take monthly pictures.  (Some like to do back shots in their undies, others I've seen stood in a doorway and used the same doorway every month to show the progress)   The loss of inches is your way of knowing you are still losing even if the scale is standing still!  It happens! 

You go girl.  I know you'll keep us posted! 

P.S.  Price and Jennifer are both jewels.  I hope you get to meet up with them.  

Me too!
thanks for the measurement/picture advise.  I'll definitely get on that.  :-)

Glad everything went good for you and you are ok with your decision.  It is great to have family support.

Try to do as much as you can to get your body ready for surgery.  Just walking everyday will really help with your recovery.

Good luck and keep us updated.
