October 2, 2008: I am just a little over 2 weeks from my surgery date. I am so excited and a little nervous too. My doctor did not require any kind of special pre-op diet but I have started cutting out things that I know I will not be able to have after surgery. The first thing to go is carbonated drinks. Not to bad , but I sure would love to have a Pepsi.  I have never known myself as small. I can't remember wearing clothes below a size 14/16. I started high school (many years ago) in an adult large and wearing loose fitting clothing to hide the fat. I never had many boyfriends and chose to marry the first man that seemed like he loved me. I was fat and didn't think anyone else would want me. Since then, I divorced and remarried - again to the first man to date me for more than a few days. Even though we love each other very much, I never had the chance to experience relationships like my skinny friends. I am not looking for relationships, as I am happily married, but do hope to be able to do things with my husband I have never been able to do before like go to the beach, go on vacations, and go out dancing without feeling like I spent the entire time hiding my fat. I am posting some pictures of me now. The countdown to my new life is on!!
