I have my surgery date for April 17th, 2008. I am exceieted/scared/anxious to have this over with and start my new life. I have been trying for many years to get insurance to cover my surgery, and finally I am within one month of it. It seems kinda surreal to me right now. I jump thru all the hoops they ask me to, just expecting them to say "OOPS, NOPE YOU CANT HAVE IT NOW". So I'm guardidly excieted. I also haven't lost the 10% that my dr wants me to lose pre-op. I lost some and gained it back, just like all my life. Why should this be any different. I'm still trying, but worried that he wont do it because of that. I talked to his nutritionist and she adv me that when I get to the 2wks of clear liquids pre-op, that alot of that 10% will come off then. But being the worry wart that I am, I still fuss over it.

I have a 21yr old son that still lives at home. He doesnt have a weight problem (THANK YOU LORD JESUS FOR THAT)!! He is healthy and athletic, makes much better food choices than I ever did. I guess I was used as a bad example, and it worked for him. I was/am always honest with him about why I am so heavy and the choices he needs to make to avoid my outcome. Thank God the DO AS I SAY NOT AS I DO worked with him.
