Wow I just read your profile you and your husband are a real inspiriation.You are starting a new and wonderful journey together best of luck it sounds like you both are doing just great.May God bless you both and have a speedy recovery.I can't believe your going back to work so soon. You are one strong woman.....Dawn

Dawn, Yes, Cory and I are on a wonderful journey together. It means so much to me that we are doing this together... I am such a blessed woman!!!! I am only one week out today but am doing great... feel ok.. returned to work yesterday and am losing weight... was down 20 pounds this morning for my first week... I am still in disbelief about that part!!!! I was thinking I would be LUCKY if I lost a couple of pounds a week. I know it will quickly slow down but 20 pounds in one week is just INCREDIBLE!!!!!! Your day will be here soon! I am so happy for you that you got your insurance approval so quickly. The four year fight that I had with my insurance was one of the most painful processes of my life and I am so glad that is over for me ****il time for plastics!!!!) Between now and your surgery try to get in your protein, lose as much weight as you can so your liver is in good shape and your body is ready for the trauma of surgery and the recovery process, and enjoy the ride!!!
