We are getting closer and closer. I have my final pre-op appt tomorrow. Then Monday our big day. So excited!!!????

Maybe you will be an inspiration to her to get healthier. My dad is 91 and he has diabetes, arthritis very bad, and has had 5 mini strokes, so I know your fears very well. It's scary to get news like that from a parent but she will be fine with her meds and her diet as well. Be strong for both of you. ????????

Yes. Definitely not a good time to share with your mother,,, Surprise her with your positive results and she will be so proud of you....im here if you need someone to talk to. You're a good daughter... Hang in there.

Haha. Yes not fun I'm on day five. It gets better everyday. Just prepping us for after our surgeries next week. Mine is Monday. ????????

Awesome job!!!!

It's not horrible. After a few days not that big of a deal really. I only have ten days on it though. Go for my final pre-op appt Thursday. Meet with anesthesiologist and dr one last time, oh and my nutritionist. Keep in touch.

Hi Anna. I'm 58 my surgery is the 24th. Hang in there. We're worth it!!!

6 days to go for this lady!! I'm 58 yrs young. Have three kids 9 grand kids. I was a cheerleader in high school and college ...When I graduated high school and got married I weighed 98 lbs soaking wet!! After three kids and health issues my high weight was 220. WOW! what a difference!???? I know to some people that doesn't sound so bad but when you are 5ft 1 inch short, that's alot!!! So blessed to have this new life about to begin. Taking my grandkids on spring break next march to celebrate my one year anniversary. Hope to be as small as my grandkids. Lol. Wish me luck!!!

Hell with that!!! I'm 58 and I can't wait to wear low rise jeans. Age is only a number. Lol

My surgery is the 24th so looking forward to the losing side of this weight struggle . let's go march winners on this losing life!Mines the 24th as well. It's slowly getting close to the big day!!

I'm telling everyone I'm having my gallbladder removed and when that's over I'm really going to focus on getting back in shape!!! Lol. My mom always told me. What others don't know won't hurt me!! Let 'em wonder!!! Too many fricking busy bodies that need to worry about themselves and not what we decide to do.
