I will be a loser! I made an interesting observation the last few days. (Interesting to me anyways.) As I am out and about in public and mention that I am having WLS, everyone is so supportive. Perfect strangers. The cashier at Target, people (that I didn't know and Mike's family of course) at Mike's niece's college grdauation open house, people online at another website I frequent, people at my clinic, etc. Of course seems like everyone knows someone who has had it done and had great success. I know a couple of people who have not stuck with the diet and have gained their weight back or at least some of it. I also know many people who have had great success and I will be using these people for support.
I'm not really nervous about the surgery itself, just the first few weeks after surgery. I am on a liquid diet today and I am HUNGRY!LOL I'm ok though. I did go buy some stuff to have at home after I get out of the hospital. Can't wait to walk the halls with Perri!
I put out an email today to some people I am not in frequent contact with about finishing school and surgery. I have gotten great response and support. Totally cool, I am excited to see the changes I will be making too. I can't really imagine buying smaller clothes and seeing a smaller me. right now it seems surreal. This will be an interesting journey.
Had my last Girl Scout Thin Mint last night. I think I can last a year or two till I have ONE again.LOL
Ok, time to get some stuff done. Kids want to take me to the bookstore to buy me a belated b-day present so I have something to read in the hosp. LOL So....Later Gators.

Measurments:
Bust: 53"
Waist: 48"
Hips: 60"
Thighs: 33"
Upper Arms: 17 "
4 days till surgery. Getting alittle nervous, not about the procedure itself, about the first few weeks. I think I have gained a couple pounds, glad Wed. is a liquid diet day, hopefully I can lose a couple. Trying to get a few things done around the house before I go into the hospital. Tonight I am having a small pity party about something that didn't work out. I know it had nothing to do with me but it is just my low self esteem and low self confidence feeding in. Oh well, there is something better waiting in the future.

Like I said, This whole surgery thing kind of came up after I had put it on the back burner because I needed to find a job. I really get the feeling I am supposed to do this. This is meant to be. I'm not supposed to wait any longer. Another really cool thing happened. I got a message on my profile from a gal that is having surgery the same day I am in the same hospital!!! Perri and I are going to be hall walking buddies!! I am so excited! We are going to meet this evening for coffee. It will be fun to get to know someone and be able to support each other. Especially since Gwen is in Austrailia and she won't be able to come see me. Perri is having surgery about the time I am getting out of surgery so I will be a couple of hours ahead of her. She also has a March birthday. This is all so COOL!!
