Surgery Day Is Here!!
Well here I am and I cant believe that i'm actually getting to post these words FINALLY!!  Yippeee!!    In exactly 8 hrs from now at 7:30 am I will be at the Legacy Good Samaritan Hospital checking in for my long awaited Gastric Bypass Surgery!!!  I cant believe it!! FINALLY after the 4 long years of jumping through hoops and long waiting lists.. its finally MY turn!! I never thought this day would get here and although i'm getting nervous and a bit scared, i'm also very excited, happy and SO ready at the same time!  I never thought so many emotions could run through me at one tme! I'm so very anxious to see what this next year has in store for me and I'm so ready for the life changes this surgery is going to help make happen for me!! 
So with that said I'm going to close this and wish you all a great week! 
Wish me luck and I'll see you all on the Loser's Bench!!

Well, you did it! Congratulations! I know right now you are having doubts, but after all is said and done and your all healed up, you will be a new you. I am so proud of you for being so brave. Hang in there and things will be good very soon.
