HOLY MOLY... Saturday, Sunday, & Monday those are the PRE-DS days I have left. Tuesday I am on liquid diet W E D N E S D A Y is my date! I have so many emotions running through my head. IF I didn't have this board & and my DS board on facebook, IF I had not been able to read YOUR stories, see YOUR pictures, watch YOUR success, ask YOU questions, I am not sure I would go through with this MAJOR life changing event. I am a lightweight. My BMI is 39. I am not uncomfortable in my size 20 clothes. My hubby thinks I am beautiful. BUT I am an uncontrolled diabetic w/high BP, and my back & ankles HURT everyday. This surgery is to save my life or at least preserve some quality of life for me. It is not to look good or to be skinny. THANK YOU my new friends. Major mom and southern Lady you two have been great. MANY others as well, I have so much on my mind that I can't remember the names.  Thank you ladies. I am glad I have found this group to accompany me on my journey into a healthier life.

Good luck and you'll be on the dark side before you know it.

If you can, have your hubby post an update so we know you are okay.
