got a date

I got my insurance approval and a surgery date this afternoon. I am going to get the band on Aug 11th. I have been posting it everywhere that I can. I didn't realize how good it felt to know when it is going to happen. I know it is a big change for my life and my family to go through, but it is going to help my girls to learn to eat better. I can't wait to not be the fat mom at all the school events with my girls. I keep thinking that I need to buy a scale for the house, but then again I don't want to be obsessed with what the numbers are saying over what my clothes and body is saying. I guess it will work it self out in time. Later, :thumbup:

That is AWESOME! Congratulations! I would buy the scale. It is good to know what you are actually doing, also so you can watch for fluctuations. But no worries, your obsession will be a great one!
