Default Love the honesty hear.

Hello and greetings to All,

Today I update my signature with new info and posted a nice story on the Post-Op forum. I read some interesting new posts here and responses and always, admirer ther honesty and from the heart sharing that happens here. In Italy there is a similar site, that my partner and I belong too. I read and understand enough to get the idea of what people are saying and the experiences are similar as well as the heart shared honest stories and experiences.
I am excited that in 6 short months I have lost 75kg (165 lbs) and I am now going to have plastic surgery along with some lyposuction on my stomache to removed the remaining overlapped panis and some excessive skin that hangs around. I look forward to recovering and going on to get my hip replaced and being able to stop the pain meds. that I have lived with for the past 2 years when the pain became intollerable and the biggest and most exciting part is that I will have a life I have wanted for so long with the ability to move in everyway I desire and enjoy the many outdoor activities that I have participated in halfway throughout my life due to being obese.
I look forward to posting again soon and sharing the outcomes of this amazing change process.
I am now studying at school 5 days a week here in Italian, French, Geography, History, Computer and Math all in Italian with other foreign students from all over the world and the difficult Italian language is starting to become a way of my American English trained brain. hahahaha
Wishing the best to each person and their individual experiences.
