Justin, I read your postings and having just obtained ins. approval I agree that waiting for the surgery date is worse than any other wait so far. My son is about 380-400#'s and finishing up chef school. I worry constantly and pray that when he gets established he considers having this surgery too. He has problems with his legs and they hurt him all the time. God Bless you and keep you safe through out your surgery. And btw, that patience and peace is your gift from GOD telling you to be at peace with your decision to have this done and that you are in His most protective hands and you shouldn't worry. Hoping to join you on the losing side soon,
Suzza
