Well...just wanted everyone to know that he is moving out this coming weekend. I have very mixed emotions about it. I'm scared of being a single mom but I also think that it may be for the best right now. Maybe we just need time apart...maybe things will work out if we're not living together while trying to work them out. Right now I just have so many emotions going on. He's having a tough time with it. I told the kids and I got emotional...they seemed fine but I don't think that they quite understand yet. Uuuuggghhhh...why do things have to be so difficult? Keep the prayers coming. Thanks everyone.

Let the countdown begin...yesterday I scheduled my surgery for plastics. I'm getting a lower body lift and breast lift with augmentation. The big day is April 14, 2009...7:30 am...first surgery of the day. I am so excited, yet scared as hell. I know that I'm going to be in some serious pain but I figured it will all be worth it. I never thought that this day would come. I never thought that I would look the way that I do now and I can't wait to have an end result. Yesterday was my second consultation. I went to see how much it would be to add on a breast lift. Well...if I just did a lift...I would go from a C cup to an A. Oh...hell no!!! That goes to show you that it's all sagging skin (GROSS). Anyway...the butterflies in my stomach have already arrived. Anyone out there have these procedures done at the same time? How was your recovery? Give me all the details.

How's everyone doing? I am so excited for all of you...banded, going to be banded or almost banded. I want everyone to feel the joy that I am feeling with this band. I hope that you are all doing well and I can't wait to hear from each of you. Keep your chins up and remember my saying... "THIN FEELS BETTER THAN food TASTES!!!!" Take care everyone and hope to hear from you soon. Tina

OH MY GOD...less than six weeks away. I cannot wait to get this crap off of my midsection and get me some real (fake) boobs. I am gonna be rocking my new body for the summer and I can't wait. How can I make this time go by quicker?:thumbup:

Update ladies (and gentlemen)...so...I told him that I want him to move out and it's like he was in denial. The following story I am telling you is for you to understand the circumstances, I, I no way am proud of it...I am quite ashamed. This past weekend, my brother came to my house to take me out on the town. He knows what I'm going through and he also knows that my mother and I are arguing and she hasn't talked to me in over three weeks. He told my sister in law that he's all that I have right now so he's going to take me out to have a good time. I was so excited. So...he picked me up at my house (he likes to show me off now so I love it) and we went to a local bar and met up with a friend of his. We were there for a little bit and then headed off to the local watering hole where I usually hang out. We had a couple of drinks there and then headed to a new club in our area. I ran into some friends from high school and was having a GREAT time. The last thing I remember...dancing on the dance floor with my friend from high school and then waking up on the sofa in the living room. Apparently when my brother dropped me off I opened the garage door and when my husband heard the door open, he opened up the laundry room door and saw me kissing my brothers friend. I, however, remember NONE of this. I have been told by my brother that I fell in my front yard and so did his friend. After telling my husband this, he said that perhaps my brothers friend was picking me up and he didn't see things clearly. He said that when I got in the house I couldn't walk or talk...it's all very scarey to me. At least I know that I was with my brother and nothing horrible happened. I may have embarassed myself but I didn't do anything too incredibly stupid. So...because he "thinks" that he saw us kissing...reality has set in and he's ready to move out. He's not mad at me...he said he was hurt and upset....he can't stand to picture me with someone else. So...we are suppose to sit down this coming Saturday to discuss the separation. I have gotten the forms from our state and we're going to do it ourselves to save money on an attorney (if we can come to an agreement). He has found a place to live and can move in after the first of the month. So...it's all about to become final. I don't really know how to feel...happy, sad, scared, terrified... Just thought that I would share. Thanks for being here for me.

OK...my loan was direct deposited this morning. It's all getting real now. I'm getting nervous but so very excited. My friend is getting a lower body lift next week and it does include a mons lift. I didn't ask my surgeon about that but I will call his assist today and ask. I can't believe that it's less than two months away. Since I have the money in the bank I can get it done anytime now but I need to save leave at work. YIKES...

OK folks...get ready for this. Went to counseling on Tuesday night. Everything went alright and I stayed very strong. It was difficult and I had big old anxieties. He is not ready to sit down and figure everything out because he's in shock. That's fine...I'm not in a hurry...it's been almost a year now...what a little bit more time (plus...money could be an issue at this point and time with my plastic surgery coming up). Anyway...the news must have been out that I am done. Either that or I have a sign on my forehead asking for all YOUNG guys to hit on me. So...after counseling I met my friend at the bar for a much needed drink. Well...the bartender was all into me...HE'S 23!!!! The other place that I hang out at...the guy there hitting on me...HE'S 26. OK...what's up with that? Very flattering but WTH? I'm not used to anyone hitting on me much less young guys. It's all very, very new to me. I don't know how to handle this...I just kind of laugh it off. Just thought I would share...have a great day everyone and as always...thanks for being here for me. Just know that all of your support has helped me a bunch and I'm sure that it will continue to help me and I truly appreciate all of it.

OK...so my new "obsession" is shopping for clothes because I can finally fit into some cute stuff. So...I went shopping the other day for some pants for work. I couldn't believe it...a size 6...A 6??? I wanted to run out of that fitting room and scream...I have NEVER been a size 6. Damn...I am so in love with my band...just thought I would share.:thumbup::biggrin:

Hi...OK, so I'm not technically "single" right now but for anyone following some of my posts, you know the deal...going through a separation following my husbands numerous infidelities. Anyway...here goes nothing... 35/Female/Maryland 2 boys - ages 6 and 8 Interested in meeting friends/emails buddies/texts buddies I work full time for Uncle Sam and have been with the same agency for over 17 years. So...that's all about me...thanks!

I haven't been to a high altitude place but I have taken several trips on a plane and I have not encountered any problems. I have read that some people do but I haven't. I guess it's different for everyone. Good luck.

I think that my husband is jealous now but it's too late...he started having an affair when I started my weight loss journey. Now I'm starting with seperation... Anyway...yes, men will get jealous when others start to notice you...it's a hit to their ego. They are proud but worried. It's a tough road.

Thanks...I appreciate it. I'm a little nervous right now because I just faxed my paperwork for my loan for my upcoming plastic surgery. YIKES. The pain and the money....oh well, it will all be worth it.

Yes, it does feel awesome. Good for you...you are doing great. Here's the latest picture of me...it's a little crazy looking but my jeans are an 8 and the sweater is a Small (I know it's got to be a BIG small) but hell...I'll take it. lol

Oh believe me...I'm sure I'm not a true "6"...my jeans are 8's and some 10s. I started out this journey in a size 22/24 pants (tight at that) and a 2x and some 3x tops. I am just so much in love with my new life. I never knew that I could be so happy with myself. It truly is wonderful. I'm serious...if I can do it, anyone can. Great job to everyone!!!!:thumbdown:
