  2. In right there with you. I'm scheduled to arrive at 5:30 and surgery at 7:30. I've had many thoughts of maybe I shouldn't do this or what do you think your doing?? I too have not been thin/ healthy for a long time. When I see the before and after pics that's what motivates me. I'm other wise healthy besides from being fat. Just the last couple of years when my weight has crept up to its highest my Bp been going higher sugar levels going up getting more outta breath when walking..etc.. I'm so ready! Yes it's ok to be scared and I'm sure well have over regrets after its done. But we're gonna look awesome and feel great! Good luck to you tomorrow. Maybe we can catchup when were in the hospital. :-) Sent from my iPhone using VST
