Whoever said, "There is nothing to fear but fear itself" LIED!

Hey my sister! Seeing as we are so close to our dates, I can just imagine what's going through your head right now! But we will do this! With our tools, we will lose!  (this line could ONLY work this well on a weight loss forum! LOL )

Actually I am more excited than I am scared.  That might be because I will be having a "mini vacation" in San Diego for three nights before the surgery.  I have had surgeries before (tonsils at 22 and gallbladder at 23).  I gets nausea when I wake up.  So I have to make sure they give me something.  I've never asked you previously, but have you had any surgeries before?

And We all are going to be bigtime losers!

We are all proof that if you use this surgery as a tool, and work with it, follow the diet plan that has been laid out for you, it WILL work for you. You will NOT fail. Even at the 3 week post op point, when the scale is stalled and you're feeling like that might be it for you and your emotions are all over the place. You will get over the hump and feel ecstatic when that scale starts to move again. We are all here for you to vent, cry, and share victories with. You are going to look and feel fabulous and I can't wait to see your progress pics!

I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE MY PROGRESS PICS EITHER!!  You've got me all excited again! LOL And thanks for the encouragement. If I hit that stall, I will probably cry and vent and get mad, but I'm hoping that I won't get like that since it's kinda to be expected. But I will be posting my SV and NSV! You betta believe that!  

Had to add a P.S.

FDR didn't lie... the only thing you have to fear, IS fear itself!  Your fear of failure is "fear itself" ;-)

LOL! I guess so! Well, I'm getting ready to kick my fear to the curve!

I Love this post!!!  I wish you much success!!!

Thanks so much!!
