Wooohooo, your second chance at life is only a few short days away, <b>Congratulations!</b> My prayers and best wishes are with you as you take the first steps down the path to a healthier and thinner you. Just remember your overall attitude plays a large role in your recovery, keep it POSITIVE and ask lots and lots of questions. I look forward to reading the "updates" to your profile as your journey progresses. Dont forget to walk, walk, WALK right after surgery, no matter how tired you are......AND get your vitamins, protein and water in daily, lots and lots of both, your health depends on it. There is a learning curve, per se', with this surgery. Don't expect to have it all down to a fine art immediately, give yourself a 90 day grace period that comes with a deadline! YOU CAN DO IT! Know that you are not alone, there are MANY of us that will have you in our thoughts and prayers on your very special day. <i> "The key to happiness is dreams, the key to success is making those dreams come true"</i> .....This surgery has been nothing short of a miracle for me and I will be forever grateful. I've lost 230 lbs and have been at goal and in maintenance for over a year now.

*******CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR UPCOMING SURGERY. ******* ~~~~~"Everything in our lives happens for a purpose and that purpose is to prepare us~~~~~~~~~~~ May God give you courage, strength and guidance throughout your new journey. Your big day is almost here, this is the day, your new life will begin, I cant promise it will be easy, cant say it will be hard, I can say that with all the complications and everything I had to go through, It was well worth it.

All....thanks so much for already making me feel welcome in the 'have a date' club! I realize I haven't posted much on my profile yet, as I tend to be the shy type (ok, ok, LOL...not really, but timid about sharing much so far - that may quite well change over time, who knows ::): )Anyway, you guys must be everybody's angels, cuz I see you everywhere - have been 'lurking' and posting questions here for a bit. I am so glad to finally 'meet' you, and so appreciative that this site is here. I know I will be needing (and hopefully also somehow providing, as time goes on) much support. Thanks again, and we'll be 'talking', I would imagine! Peace and health! Sammie
