The 15th or the 22nd, it all depends on when the income taxes and passport arrive. I looked at the wrong month on my phone calendar and was thinking you had 4 weeks left but you're right. This means I have 3 or 4 weeks left. Yayayayaya. Lol

Squeeeeel! So happy for you.

Walk at home DVDs are a good place to start for beginners, especially the only walking ones.

Woohoo!! I'm getting nervous and excited for you!!! I MIGHT be there woth you, I have a feeling that I won't be able until the 22nd. Ish I wish we could go together! I'm so with you on the "I was just saying that I couldn't wait 4 months and now it's almost here" thing. Ohhhh it's so close! Our lives are going to change positively so much!! I feel hope. It's a good feeling, huh!?

Oh man this must be scary! I'm so sorry.

Please, don't put that POISON or any other into your body!! This surgery is your last ditch effort to get healthy and be a better you, and I applaud you for being so brave and thinking about yourself instead of him. If he was too much of an ahole to love and respect you for doing something so beautiful for yourself, he's DEFINATELY not worth you self destructing. You don't want to look back on your life and remember when a loser left your side because you wanted to take care of you, and you self destructed. I watched my grandpa die of lung cancer a few years ago. He couldn't walk 2 yards to his closet without turning purple and coughing up blood into his Kleenex. He died 3 weeks after that visit. No man is worth that, damn sure not a selfish insecure manchild. Honey, a real man would be proud of you. He'd hug you when you return alive. He'd stand by you every minute of your journey. I understand you're hurting because he left, and because he wasn't that man. That man is out there somewhere, waiting to meet this confident, healthy, strong partner. . Don't mourn him, Celebrate the fact that you can now move on and do better.

Those compression pants look great. I'd honestly wear crop length though, because you're going to get hot!

Put the username in the email box. I had to ask too.

Dh's company waits til the very last minute. Sigh. Op, exciting!!

Oh this is starting to feel so real!!!! I'm so excited! About 4-5 weeks to go. As long as it gets here on time anyway.

Astephenson and Susan, expedited?

Now. I'm 29 years old, and I don't need anyone's approval. BUT. My grandma called tody to tell me what a dangerous surgery this is (general, weightloss surgery). How selfish I am for only thinking if myself and not my 6 children. BANGHEAD. she says when I leave I ought to just "kids my kids goodbye." This woman has never had a weight problem a day in her life. Why don't you just go on a diet? You know you still have To eat healthy and exercise for life, so why don't you just eat healthy and exercise and skip the surgery? Why don't you just eat like a weightloss surgery patient? You are just going to gain the weight, Al Roker gained 40 pounds. And on and on. I just replied "I'm doing this completely for my kids. I appreciate your concern but I know what I'm doing. I hope I can prove you wrong" I still had a good cry afterward. I do get that she's scared and surgery is scary. But surgery today isn't what it was in 1967 grandma. Sigh. First it was my mom. Now she's my biggest cheerleader. NOW it's my grandma. I can never please that woman.

That sounds good. I don't care for the sweeteners tho. I put them in my vanilla Protein shakes.

Wow!!! You're smokin!! And toned! How much do you work out? Starting weight? How much have you lost?

She also brought up the "you're just looking for a quick fix" line. Oy vey is right. Smh. She loves me. Has a funny way of showing it sometimes, and is very set in her ways, but she loves me. Maybe she'll come around when she sees me LIVING my life. I've been dieting and exercising since I was 13. I'm ready for a more permanent solution. Not a quick fix. Sigh. I'm glad my mom is on board now and very supportive. She gets happy tears now when she talks about how proud she is of me for making this choice. She knows how unhappy I've been for years. <3
