Can I just say most people in my life know I am doing this--for me, it isnt a secret. I would be called out by family who would say "OF course we knew you did something do you think we are stupid!?" So for me no sense in hiding it.

That said...every single person except my mom, Dad and Step mom has asked me are you getting nervous? NOPE. I have made it this far, on this diet from hell (snicker) and I have a goal right there in front of me. Nervous not the word for it.

As I am counting down...I am thinking, praying "Please God, let this work for me, let me go thru the steps like I have been told, be ready for the ups and downs, but more than anything let me lose weight and be healthier"

My original worry years ago when I started this research for myself was the skin! Imagine that...the loose skin fear kept me from doing this years ago. Now, 20lbs heavier my worry was passing out from tying my darn shoes and bumping my head on something hard! lol No longer worrying over the skin (looked up plastic surgeons the day I got approved!) The girls WILL see the sun again!

SO upward and onward thru my week, until they come to wheel me off for a little sleep, Theyll poke n prod, inside my gut, in hopes of getting me to a smaller butt! I pray my surgeons hands are steady, because this time I am ready!

Lack of sugar has obviously gone to my head!

I want to thank you guys who have left me positive uplifting comments! I truely appreciate them. :thumbup:

Good Luck this week...

Thanks so much!
