Hello :)

[turndown4what91 27]

Hello everyone! My name is Danielle. I have been hiding here for the past several months but I have decided that it's time to stop being shy and say hi! I have been on a journey for gastric bypass surgery for what seems like a lifetime. February of 2014 was the first time I set foot into my surgeons office and due to my insurance and a bunch of bumps in the road it took over a year for aprooval. . Over a year later I finally got aprooved and have my surgery date! I will be having the surgery on April 15th.. 10 days! EEEKKK so excited but also so nervous! I look forward to getting to know you all. I need buddies.. nobody that I know understands me or understands why I'm having this surgery so im very excited to have this place full of people who understand. hope you all have an awesome day!

Congrats on your choice on being healthy you will be welcoming the new you very soon, people do not understand the struggles that we go though and the health issues unless they are facing the same challenges, I do not regret the fact that I had this life changing event everyday , I look in the mirror and I am not ashamed of how i look in my clothes, I feel beautiful now and I now do not get the statement you have such a cute face now I have a cute healthy body to go with my cute healthy face. I have had so many doors open up for me since loosing the weight and this change has also shown me the prejudice of being overweight . I have men and women running to open doors for me and giving me compliments, I have always bee smart and now when I enter a room I not only get admiring looks but the attention I deserve because I have something of value to share. Keep me posted on your progress and we are always hear to help , feel free to add me as a friend and contact me anytime.

So exciting!!! I complained because I have been waiting 3 months. I have wanted this for a year, but was waiting the new to start the journey. No more complaining though!! I too am scheduled for April 15th. lots of people have given me their two cents worth of opinions, but I have decided this is for me. For my health, for my family, to prove once and for all I can fight this weight and win.

weather we have been waiting for a year for this surgery or 3 months or even 2 weeks regardless it's still just as much torture! When you want something so badly 2 hours can feel like a century. so I'm glad your wait is almost over too! We've only got 8 days 7 hours 10 minutes and 34 seconds left! (Definitely have the countdown on my phone haha) anyways can I add you as a friend? Would be awesome to know someone having the surgery on the same day as I am

[turndown4what91 27]

Wait how do I even add friends on here? Lol

Yes, it really would be great to know someone. Really struggling with my liquid diet. I keep saying in 9 days it'll all be worth it. Are you on fb?

Long hard work and dedication has got you here and that dedication and endurance will soon be behind you after tomorrow and then you will have to channel all of it to your new journey of post care!! I have no doubt that you will succeed in it as you have with the preop journey. Congratulations, i know it feels like forever but you are one day away and sometimes that last day all kinds of emotions, anxiety, and such appear. Just keep focused and enjoy your first success and see you on the losers bench after tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
