Congrats on your date! That is my date too! I am very nervous and anxious. Best of luck to you!

yay! that is my surgery date! Congrats!

I guess I have not shame but I pretty much told everyone! I have never been embarrassed about being overweight and it's just easy for me to tell people. The only people I have not really told is my husbands family but that is because I am hardly around them. I kind of mentioned it on FB yesterday and I am hoping they ask me a few questions so I can just tell them. We will see!

I guess we are all different and I truly believe that there is nothing wrong with NOT telling people.

I told my case manager that I was going on a cruise 11 weeks after my surgery and she said no! I laughed because I thought she was kidding but then she said "I am not kidding" and she was serious. She said they do not recommend it because of all the food options. I told her I wont go if she pays me the $1000 non refundable deposit I paid four months ago.

I felt like a child who was not trusted by a superior. Last thing I want to do is get sick on my vacation... I wanted to tell her "I am an adult!" LOL.. I am sure they mean well.

I say, if you are feeling well you should do what makes you happy.

wishing the best for you in my prayers!

good luck! you are almost there!

that's great! I just met my goal weight and I am waiting to meet with my case manager to set my surgery date. Not going to lie, I am terrified! I have never had surgery and I have my fears! I admire your bravery! keep up the good work!
