Samm thinking about you today. Only one more sleep until you start your journey to a healthier thinner life.

Lisa wish you were closer too. We will be in the Hat for your Panni to visit. Samm might be feeling up to a bit of a drive by then and we will have Carrie feeling better by then too. Lori P is close too. Then we can have a nice little TT canadian get together. Wish our American friends could come too.

Sam, you must be so excited 'bout now! Your staff was so sweet to put the basket together for you. Gives you a nice send off for your leave. Best of luck to you tomorrow, for a smooth surgery and rapid recovery!

Hello everyone! I am in the HAT, actually I am at my friends in Redcliff at the moment, just took their dogs on a hike and then Andy & I will head back to the not overly nice motel (Ramada) it's quite a hole actually but I only have to stay there one night at least!! It's cheap but that's about it! So this is probably my last post B4 the big day, the op is at 9.15 so I have to be in the hospital by 7.15am, so by 11am I should be all done! I have been on liquids for 2 days and I think I am just going to go and get some soup at Timmys on the way back to the hole. See you on the loosing side.............................................. ....

some photos of the Ramada in MH. Cheap yes but sleezy for sure!

Hi Samm...The Ramada is not the nicest motel...but its cheap and close the the hospital....when we were there for 2 weeks, it was the best deal.

9:15am - you will be with the program by about 2pm........I had surgery at 7:15am and not with the program until after 3pm, but I am a slow waker-uper!

Will be thinking of ya! Take Care Sweetie.

Too bad about the terrible accomadations. In Lethbridge the Ramada is one of the nicest places to stay.

Anyway just letting you know I'm thinking about you tomorrow. Can't wait to hear all those reports from the losing side.
