  2. I just want to be a loser...slow, medium, fast....I just want it gone gone gone!!! Congrats on those 30 lbs!!
  3. Congrats on getting a date!!!! Let's hope time continues to fly by!
  4. Good luck and we look forward to your update!!!!
  5. good luck to those on the schedule for tomorrow!!!
  6. Honestly, I wanted to shoot at the top of my lungs and tell any and everyone that could hear me. But then I thought about it, not that many people needed to know...or probably didnt care. In the end, I have only told my mother, S.O, a few family members, and maybe one or two coworkers. Not everyone needs to know and I know that I will have to deal with the questions when I get back to work or when people see me afterwards...so I will deal with that part of it when i get to it!!!! But until then, I am going to rejoice in the fact that I will soon be on the losers bench and enjoying life once again!
  7. Amen!!! Can't wait to be where you are!! Keep up the wonderful work!!
  8. Congrats !!!! I know you are on cloud nine right now!!! One step closer to the losers bench!!!
  9. Glad things went well and you are feeling great!!!! Save me a seat on the loser's bench!!!
  10. nope definitely not just you. I have to go to the store to pick up some things... but I am going to wait for that because I know if I go now, I will make a few trips there between now and then and I dont want to go crazy... I am packing light...and since my mother and I are only taking ONE bag, I have to save room for her
  11. Welcome to the forum!!! And congrats on making the decision to take back control of your life!!!
  12. is on the bed and right now I am just throwing stuff in it. No organizing at all right now!!! I still have 19 days:21hours:24mins:09seconds before we leave, so there is definitely time. I have only put two loose fitting dresses and a few toiletries in there for now!!! Just super excited to say that it is finally May and that these days are going to go by so fast, I hope... I am actually shocked that I am just now pulling out the suitcase. I am usually packed and ready to go a month in advanced when it comes to travelling... :wub: anyway, I'm babbling!!! thanks for letting me babble!!
  13. I havent told too many people about me going to Mexico, but the ones who know also have things to say... I really dont care. I went to Mexico to have my tubal ligation reversed in 2006 and never regretted it and this will be the case for this surgery as well. I can't help you choose your doctor because my doctor is Dr. Garcia. But you seem like you are doing your research. I am sure some of each doctors patients will chime in and help you along the way. Good luck!!!
  14. I am with you, I have to wait until the 22nd but we leave on the 21st!!! It will go fast. Who is your doctor?
  15. It's finally May!!!! Omg I hope the rest of the month goes by fast!!!!! Good luck to those that are going today and the coming days!!!! Please keep up posted!!!
  16. You are going to do great!!!! Relax (I know that's hard)!!!! My prayers are with you!!!
  17. Such a man. I think you are better than me, I would have definitely flip a lid and everything else in that house. Because you shouldnt make promises you don't plan on keeping. try to keep your cool and remind him that he said that he was going to do something...and looking around, it doesnt seem like he has lived up to his end of the bargain. Usually when my S.O says he is going to do something and he doesn't, I will start to do it and he just hates that.... or feels really bad that he didnt do it... maybe give that a try.... Men are such dorks and jerks and a few other names that I can think of
  18. that is totally hilarious!!! But it does you justice!!!
  19. started a vlog!!! I said I wouldnt but I figured I needed a little therapy and since I didnt want to pay anyone to get it...I figure talking to myself would be wonderful!!! Here is my link http://www.youtube.com/user/ldeannepps?ob=0 I think that should work, if it doesnt let me know!!
  20. Thanks for all your input!!! I hope it's not too bad like most say. But I know my doctor does it for sure!!!
  21. Is it really that bad? I say a YouTube video and it's looks funky and when she pulled it out I almost died...
