Will go tomorrow for blood work,next week to see the nut and then Dr.
I'm soo happy, but now I have a headache.
It's finally here, I almost can't believe it, there has been so many ups and downs with this.
Yes  I"m HAPPY, HAPPY, HAPPY,
Just to have another change at a healthy life is so wonderful to me. 
This year has been sooo difficult health wise, If I think of all that has happened I could just cry for days. All this is behind me now and a new beginning. , sorry, but I thank God for all the good, n that he has carried me thru a difficult time.
I thank the Off  people for their insirations to help each other in difficult times and in joyful onces.
There is so much wisdom here. Yes, I'm a newbie  here, but I feel apart of you all.

Carol, it is so good to have another one join us on the losers bench. We will start cleaning...sometimes we get rather messy don't you know...and dusting so that when you get there it will be clean. There is always room for one more...it is an endless bench.

Boy...the time for your surgery is going to coming so fast that your eye balls are going to start rolling. ha ha  But...it is a good eye rolling.

When you go to the hospital make sure that you take your chap stick...I am so glad that I had it with me when I had mine. I still use it a lot...my lips are always dry for some reason.

Make a list of all your WOW moments and that way you will be able to remember them all. I was told about that and to this day I regret not doing it. Make sure you date them too if you do it and that way you will know when it happened and how far out from surgery you were too.

Just make sure you breathe....it might be hard with all the excitement but it is kind of important. And again.....CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU LOSER!!!!!!!!

                    It's not what you gather, but what you scatter 
                        that tells what kind of life you have lived.

 Carol,
That's wonderful!!!     I remember how excited I was...  

It will be a new beginning.   I feel that I can have a life again, starting to lose the weight -
I have lost 46 pounds since July 16.  That is a drop int he bucket of what I have to lose but it has made a big difference in how I feel.

I'm really happy for you.  I can hear and feel your excitement.

 I'm glad Brenda reminded you of chapstick.

I would add a small portable fan.   The hospital rooms can be stuffy and I was HOT.
My husband brought in a fan and it made a world of difference ...
