  1. I have only told my husband, My mom and dad and my cousin and a friend. My mom and cousin will be going with me. I plan to let my husbands family know when I get back and the rest of my family, I have actually started a private blog that I plan to email them all with the link so they can read everything and get a better understanding of why I did it.

  16. Hi Paigers I found this link on here I don't know if you have seen it or not but this really sealed the deal for me for who I would have surgery with, its Dr Ponce featured in this video. http://www.globalnews.ca/video/weight+times/video.html?v=2191228745#video
  17. sure no problem, Trish is super nice, I have talked with her a few times.
  18. sorry to butt in, this is Trish's facebook page https://www.facebook.com/#!/TrishyLupz I will be going with Dr Ponce and Trish as soon as I can get the money together.
  19. I am glad you had a great experience with Dr Ponce and Trish, it makes me feel more confident when I hear so many good things about them. My kids are 10,8,6,3 and 15 months so thankfully my older kids can help when they aren't at school its when they are in school and my husband is at work that worries me. I maybe able to get my cousin to help on her days off. AH who knows LOL its something that came to me in the night while my mind was racing with all this stuff, I just can't stop thinking about it all.
  20. Yeah it will be a 10 hr drive so split between us all we should be fine and if we have to stop over in vegas for the night well OH WELL huh LOL.
  21. We (my mom and cousin) will be driving down from Utah, it will be cheaper that way. I am pretty sure my pcp will be on board with me but you just never know Wow a fat farm do they still have those? I am glad she came around. Thats one of the hard things for me too, seeing old friends and they just LOOK at you like you grew two heads, and you know they are thinking holy crap she is huge.
  22. Thats awesome, you must be so excited. I can't wait to hear you experience.
