Lucky me... I found out I'd been approved at the WLS Christmas party, surrounded by those who knew how wonderful the news was!!!

I haven't told many others, still trying to decide about telling Mom, Dad and the siblings...

CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU!!! When is the big day?

Only you can decide what's best. Others are just telling you what they think based on what they've heard and it's all good right? It's good to be informed and hear all sided of the story. In the end it's your decision and your research and your medical history. Good luck and congratulations!

Tashia, Congratulations on your upcoming surgery date. Dr. Callery is also doing my surgery on Monday. I know it is scary but I think I am more scared not to have the surgery. Please try not to pay too much attention to those who are not well informed and give negative feed back. Your kids are really going to enjoy having a healthy mother. Glad you came here for support. I do intend to start going to one of the post op monthly support groups soon. Maybe I'll meet you and some of the others.

Keeping you in my thoughts and prayers.

All the Best!
