Smile 3 More sleeps until my surgery YA YA

I am excited now.. I am ready to be on the skinny side!! I can't wait to wear just blue jeans and a white t-shirt and look cute. To get healthy! I am so excited to shop at a normal stores and not hit the sides of the movie theater seats with my butt or be afraid of getting on a ride at disneyland in fear they might ask me to move or get off.. I am so ready for this.. I can't wait to be great in bed again and be a little sexy (sorry about being a little to real on that one) . I don't have to wonder if I now have type 2 diabetes..Sorry for my own little pep talk but I am just excited now!!

Default You Go!!!

YOU GO!!!!!!!! You sound SO positive!! You're in much better shape than I was last week. lol I was scared like never before. I had my surgery..LAP RouxNY last Thurs Jan 24th and came home on Sat the 26th so I think I'm doing pretty well. My surgeon says "everything went very smoothly" and I have to be honest, I'm feeling pretty good ,considering. I haven't taken anything at all for pain...haven't needed any...since I got home and am wondering now why I put myself through all the emotional stress of being so afraid and negative. You'll do great! I love your attitude!
