You are right ahead of me! Best of luck

Good for you, you sound very happy!

My sister was one of the first people I told and she couldn't keep her trap shut! I think it was because she was so happy for me. I was a little annoyed at first because i asked her not to tell anyone But I eventually decided to be open about it anyways and hopefully inspire people in any way I can. Good luck to you!

I don't think her post came from a competitive standpoint. In my opinion we have all made a great decision to have this surgery, period. There are so many great doctors out there and most of us are fortunate enough to have these great experiences. It seems to me like she was really excited and proud of her doctor! I know I am. Surgeons are people too, and no one is better than the other... They all help improve our lives, save our lives... They are all heroes!

Very nice! Do you know when this will be?

Congrats, you are so beautiful and deserve to feel good about yourself!

I live in Bellingham! But I am going to Mexico for my surgery. Let's keep in touch! Sent from my iPhone using VST

I have been snowboarding since I was 7 years old and when I was 22 (i am 24) I decided to give it up because I felt too fat to snowboard! I can't wait to strap into my bindings with confidence!!!!! I also want..... to wear overalls. Not because they are cute, (because they're not!) But because I CAN!, To Speed walk up hills and run up stairs without being winded, To look down a trail from the top and say "piece of cake!", To dance in heels, to Wear single digit sizes, to Get a full body massage, to Have a neck and one chin, To steal my sister's clothes, to Enjoy shopping, to smile at the mirror!

Super great advice on here. Whether that be empathy or constructive criticism. It's hard to walk away from foods but you will be so proud of yourself when it becomes less of a struggle! You'll be fine, hun! Sent from my iPhone using VST
