ok nerves...2 more days....

So, I stopped blogging for a bit, bc I got frustrated with the wait...:smile: but now I'm back and over it...:thumbup: lol   I am now having surgery on Friday, yep, this Friday it's happening...finally after 2 reschedules (on behalf of surgeon, unforeseen family emergency) and now I'm getting nervous.   Upside, on this liquid only thing and down 17-20 lbs, been flux'ing 3 lbs at a time, weird, I know...that's partially why I'm doing this surgery.   I am in FW and having to drive 60+ miles

I'm short and round and that's only cute on babies...ya know. I can't wait to have my life back...and be pain free...and able to be a normal size person-by that I mean well proportionate.
