Hi Melanie,
Congratulations on making the decision to really live your life to the fullest!!
You and your surgical team will be in my prayers for a uneventful surgery and speedy and pain free recovery!!
I had my surgery Oct. 11, 2004 and have lost 154lbs and have gained good health and a full life!!! You will be a loser too, before you know it.
Christ's peace,
Connie aka Teal Rose
