10 days and counting!!

Jul 27, 2009

Oh my goodness..... I'm just SO SO excited, and not a bit scared.   Is that bad?

On the Dr's scales, I started at 210, but I was 207 (first thing in the a.m., no pajamas to weigh me down... HA!)  on my scales.

And....... this morning, on my scales, I weighed 199.8!!   Wahoo!!!    

It's a bummer that that will register (since I'll be clothed!) 202 at the Dr.'s office, but I'm so glad to only have 2-3 lbs left to make it the 10 I was supposed to lose pre-op.     :)

I know I wouldn't be getting this surgery if it wasn't for all the encouraging success stories (and unvarnished truth) here on the OH boards, so thank you thank you.....THANK YOU!!!

Don't get me wrong... I know it will be hard, painful, uncomfortable and a BIG adjustment.

It's just going to be so great to at least stack the odds more in my favor and have this awesome tool to help!!

I'm pretty sure I'm driving my husband crazy talking about it all the time, and thanking him (since I'm self-pay, which is actually sweet husband-pay!!).      

And now I have 2 sleeve sisters - one even in Dallas - thanks 140forlife! - so things are great.

I'm so SO grateful.  

Hugs to all of you out there - I know it'll get worse before it gets better, but I couldn't be more thrilled today.

Best,
Kelly
