    you really should be filing a complaint with the Dept of Ed.. how dare this person judge you on size. Also, if she said these inappropriate things behind your back, what would she also dare say in front of the students? We all have a person, Size has no bearing on this.. It just shows how much ignorance exists...
  23. OMG- Tanya... I too have been freaking out about the surgery.. however I cannot disregard all the positive changes that will be.. like health, a new outlook on life..
  24. That's amazing! so good to hear as well. I am having surgery in July and I am so excited.. Keep us posted on progress, weight loss and how you feel.... curious if the way you see food is also changing? Blessings on this journey. Ruby
  25. I am so glad to have read your post... I am anxiously awaiting my surgery date in July.. i also think i should have made this decision sooner. I believe I was trying to do it on my own.. but I just kept hitting a road block.. Also, with having a toddler i was afraid.... and maybe i am just ready now.. not sure.. but I AM GOING TO DO IT... and I can hardly wait.. to be healthy and into a size 8-10... i can almost taste it.. lol Your progress is so helpful to those either awaiting surgery, or on the fence.. Thanks for posting.. Ruby
