Okay my day is HERE!!! 6:30 in the a.m. and i will be SLEEVED!! OMG i am in disbelief. I just want to take this time out to thank GOD my savior for walking through this process with me!! I pray that he continues to watch over me on this journey. I pray that he also continues to watch over all of my fellow APril sleevers. Love you all!!

omg this happened to me!!!!!!!! i just went on and got a fill on one tooth and he gave me antibiotics so that i can wait until after my VSG to have the wissoms out!

Thank you guys soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much. It means alot to have people that ive never met care and give an encouraging word. It means even more because you all have "BEEN THERE DONE THAT" alot of people don't understand the emotions that come with such a surgery. I sincerely thank you all from the bottom of my heart.. Im ready for the loser's bench
