Patty, Just wanted to wish you a safe and successful surgery on Monday. I'll be sending lots of positive thoughts your way. Looking forward to following your weight loss journey. I've enjoyed getting to know you on OFF and know you'll do well in the days, weeks, months, and years to come. This next year will go so fast. I can't believe that I'm 11 mos post op already. What an incredible journey. Take care, Karen

Hey Patty, Your day is coming very soon now. You must be feeling some of the anxiety that pre surgery brings. I've got a month to go and it is already making my stomach a little queasy. But considering all that you've been through to get to this day, perhaps there is no anxiety but just relief. You've had to do a lot of fancy foot work to get here. It saddens me to think about the doctor who ripped you off for $150.00!! Your continued persistence in this in spite of the road blocks is impressive. To apply that kind of determination to our post op challenges will make us successful. We are in this together. I am so glad you are a part of OFF and I hope to meet you one day when there is less of both of us. This is going to be great girlfriend!! I am looking forward to following your journey. Healthy and positive thoughts are being sent your way. Hugs to you, Sharon

thinking of you! Looking back, I really enjoyed my last weekend before my surgery... I spent time going through my closet, getting rid of things I had not worn in a year, grouping clothes by how they fit, since size on the label is sometimes misleading...drinking lots of fluids...playing with my grandson..taking "before" photos, measurements... and BLINK! here I am 4 months later...you'll be there before you know it! Behind you 100%!!

<b>Congratulations on taking this huge step in your journey and becoming an official member of the "fellowship of the switch."</b> We hope that your surgery and recovery are swift, smooth, and uneventful. It is an interesting experience and certainly not "the easy way out" of being unhealthy and obese but each day will get a little better and be further proof that you dared to dream and had the courage to act. Good luck and God bless!
