I love Thailand and can't wait to return once I've lost all of my weight! Have a wonderful time and be safe...Try the fried crickets they sell on the street, I hear they are full of protein

Thanks for the support Ladies!

And thanks for adding my name the January List Lyndasroom!

Gosh, it's so unreal that after all this time watching everyone go in for their surgery .. it's almost MY TURN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My friends asked me if I was 'afraid 'and you know what I told them? NO!!!!!!!! (they were surprised)

Why? Because I KNOW more than almost anything else I've done in my life ... that I have made the right decision.

Anyway, I never dreamed I would miss reading these posts everyday so (tears in eyes) I am soooo happy I'm able to reach out to you guys like this! I was sitting in my hotel room last night - soo tempted to come down to the lobby and READ these posts again.

Gosh ... I like you guys sooooo much!!!!

Monkeygrly - funny I imagined I would be traveling as a 'normal' person to Thailand!! Unforunately, I was not able to lose a flipping pound this last year (mostly I GAINED) which was the reason I finally decided to BOOK this flippin surgery!!

I saw the fried crikets, fried beetle,fried worms and BBQ RAT! I tried the rat and worms ... not bad actually - but I'll eat anything - that's why I'm in the situation I'm in today! Hee hee!

Hey - there are hardly any fat people here so I REALLY stand out!

Sometimes people look at me and say WOW! Did you have that experience?

They don't mean it in a bad way (the way they do in the Western world) but still .... Oh well.

Hope you enjoy 'skinny' Thailand!!!!

I'll stop rambling now .... off to hit the streets! (there haven't been any more bombings so I think I'll be okay!)
