Hello Kelly Jo, I am praying that you will have a safe and uneventful surgery. I am also praying that you will meet your weightloss goals. This surgery has helped so many people and I am sure it will help us too! Lady T.

Kelly Jo, Thanks for your kind words of motivation. I read your profile. Wow you have a wait, don't you? Only for your self, I give you this simple advise. Take from it what you will. Weight Watchers is great but if you are already thinking "what are other people thinking about me" try online WW, you can still teach yourself how to eat. That is my problem. I will eat a salad every day for lunch (Mon-Fri) weekends I still have little control until now. Surgery in two days. However, with the salad, I told my self, "i can eat whatever salad I want and how much I want. No croutons. I would splurge and eat the shell from a taco salad, though. I managed to lose 17 lbs but it took me 4 months. It was hard but I started to actually enjoy the salads. Then I realized all the fat I was putting on the salad (dressing, cheese, mayo in tuna) so I joined WW online to help me understand what limits I should have. This tool will help me once I get closer to my 8months to a year out from surgery. I just don't want to gain it back ; ) Good luck and keep posting. it feels good and good people read it!!

Thank you for taking the time to wish me well on my surgery. I am six days post op and a little sore, but other than that I feel fine. It means so much for you to wish me well. I hope that you also get you surgery and well wishes are here from me. Thank you.

Hi Kelly Jo.... Thank you so much for taking the time to send me well wishes.... I means sooo much... I am still pretty new to this site. I too am a countdown person... I have 28 hours and 17 minutes until I am to be in admissions. I am having a lot of mixed emotions right now (which is why I am up at 2:00 in the morning..lol) I am very excited and very nervous. I understand all about the insurance hoops....it's as if they never end. This has been a two year journey for me and I know it does not seem like it but time will fly and it will be here before you know it. Best of luck to you. ~~~ Oh.....thanks for sharing the wls dreams.... I am glad to know others have had similiar dreams ;-)
