Just leaving home for my date with the Surgeon!!! Surgery scheduled to start in 4 hours. Prayers and positive thoughts appreciated.

So happy for you!!!

Thank you for sharing, my surgery is 4/4, gives me hope that maybe it won't be as bad as I fear.

I had said in February that I would like to loose 30# before surgery, not sure why I chose that goal. Well my surgery is Tuesday 4/4. Did my weight this morning down 30.2. It just made me feel more excited, because I see I can meet goals.

Best of luck today
