Yeah, I have to tell my professors since I am going to miss class on the Friday after my surgery. I have no idea what to say.....

Haha, I love your face in this picture. You look great!

Haha, I love that too. I can't wait until they actually hang off me.

That is amazing~ Keep up the fabulous work. I really hope I can lose that much.

Aw, you can get through this. You have a wonderful silver lining. You are killing this pre-op diet! I am sorry there are people who don't think before they type, but it happens. Keep up the awesome work!

Wow, that is such an amazing difference. Congrats!

That's awesome! I don't think I could cut my hair off like that, lol. I am just so impressed. Keep it up!

Sounds awesome, Raine. It has been a pleasure to watch you go through your journey, and I am happy to continue watching you meet and succeed at your goals.

Ah, I did the food funeral. Om nom nom, nachos and beer for the win last night. I think I am going to miss beer the most. But I started the liquid diet today. I am glad I am not alone on this.

My surgeon, Dr. Webb, uses a 34fr, but he does not oversew the staple line.

Wow, that is amazing. Congrats!

Wow, that is exactly how much I need to lose. I hope I can do that in six months also. You are such an inspiration.

Haha, that sounds like my belt. I have cracks around the holes in my belt. They really don't like being stressed, lol. Can't wait to buy a new belt!

That's so amazing. Congrats!

I am so excited for us! Hey, don't forget to check out the September 2011 forum to keep up to date with everyone going in September and find others on or around your date!

Hey MsDad, I will be 5 days ahead of you with Dr. Webb, so I will definitely keep you posted. I know this is terrifying, but neither you or I would be here if we weren't doing this for our health and happiness. At 21, this is a surgery I researched extensively for the last 9 months, and one I can spend the rest of my life with. Good luck! Keep me posted how everything goes.

So inspiring. I love the determination and optimism that drive you. I can't tell you how much I appreciate having a person like you on this forum.

I can't add a poll to this one on my phone, so start the voting in the Team Name thread. I will add the link to the topic when I get to a computer tomorrow! Can't believe only two more weeks until September.

Lol, I love how you are a go getter. I was going to add the poll to the other thread when I got a real internet connection. I am on my phone right now. Can't believe we only have two weeks to go!

One word.... adblock. You won't see them again.

Every second it was on my mind. I hope you will hear back soon though!

That's awesome. Congrats! You are such an inspiration.

You look wonderful! Congrats on your fabulous weight loss!

Congrats, Leslie you look fabulous! I am so happy for you.

I will definitely be keeping you in my thoughts. You sound like you have this under control. I will just cross fingers insurance plays along. Welcome to the forum! Just try to stay positive. Time does fly a little faster than you think. Good luck on your journey!
