Tomorrow is the big day. I am a mixture of excited and nervous... I am at work trying to finish off a few things before I go but can't seem to concentrate for more than 5 minutes!! It is weird, during the process it felt like it was taking forever (16 months), and now that the day is here it seems like it was so fast!  So to those that are waiting, it really does go by quickly!!. 

I don't post a lot but I do read a lot so thanks to everyone who gives their insight, tips, struggles and victories!!!

I feel like I am ready and tomorrow begins a whole new chapter in my life! Yay me!

Leanne, just wanted to say congratulations to you and say it's so wonderful to hear how well people are doing and maintaining their weight.  It is so encouraging for us just post-op.  Thank you.

Funny enough my surgery is 16 months from referal as well and I thought the same thing... felt like it took forever until they gave me an actual date! FLEW by

Carla,  all the best tomorrow with the surgery, I'm sure you will do just great.  It's amazing how the time flies, I'm already one month post-op and feeling so good and so happy I did this.  You will feel the same way I'm sure. xo  Cathy enlightened
