I have a Date!!!!

At last!!!! Things are moving along with lightning speed. Last evening my insurance called to tell me to report to the Obesity Committee at 9 am this morning. This morning had lousy weather, raining, tons of traffic, what can I say. We started out about 6:30 am and arrived at the hospital at 10:00, it's on the other side of Athens. No harm was done by our lateness and I was approved within seconds!
I called the surgeon's office this afternoon and his secretary arranged a date for the operation right there and then:

DECEMBER 26, 2010!

This will be my new birthday from now on!!

Only 1 week away, and I'm sooooo nervous!
  
Over 110 lbs lost!! (Finally!)

It MUST be January if it is only one week away! You are so excited you can hardly remember what month we are in huh??
Soooooooooo Happy for you. Now you have a BIG incentive to put those smokes on the shelf quickly! Let all the excitement keep you distracted!
Hugs to you! Keep us posted with how surgery went asap cuz we will all be waiting to hear and needing to know how you did!
