I really didn't think this day would come. So many personal hurtles and worries about insurance. Im estatic! I really look forward to starting my new life which won't revolve around food. It's going to be hard, so hard, but it will be so worth it. I just hope and pray I make it through surgery <3.

    Congratulations :) I remember how excited I was when I got that phone call. Good luck girl. I just had my surgery almost 2 weeks ago now. I am still in the early stages but I just know that this was the best decision I could have ever made for myself.
