But just wanted to get some other's input!! Thanks so much!! __________________ That's were she asked for input. I must say I have to apologize to all the psychics on this board who are able to inturpret so much from one paragraph. To "know" she has no intentions to follow the doc's plan to "know" she wanted you guys to validate her (unsure why anyone would need that from a bunch of strangers) and to "know" she is going to fail. Wow you guys are awesome. I didn't know I had stumbled on to the Pcychic network. I will continue to give support and not be judgmental of the people on this board when they come across a stumbling block big or small. If to you that means I am doing harm, good for you and all others who agree. Because to clarify I don't need validation or permission from any of you to do what I do. I do hope all of you stay on your perfect streak and do not come across a stumbling block where you are looking for advice and support and not ridicule and judgment. FYI this will be my last reply to this thread because it's just silly. When younhave reached the point in your lives where you don't ever fall back on what you know is right and no longer make any mistakes in life let me know! Happy Holiday all.

I'm sorry but at what point in her post did she ask any one for PERMISSION? What she asked for was input. Once again she wanted to know if anyone was going through what she was going through, that is it. There were some very appropriate response on the board (ie consult your physcian to get more gudiance). My guess is what she was looking for is more along the lines of "Hey none of us are perfect and we have all slipped but there are reasons for the restriction..." explain why the doc may have put those restrictions and offer advise. I don't think she posted so that so many of you could make her feel like she was the only one out there that has ever slipped. Again she did not ask anyone for permisson she asked for INPUT.

Ok let's see how many people will be upset by this.... This is a very serious step we have all taken and we have all made a commitment to make a serios change in our lives and the lives of our families. Me personally by coming to this board I was looking for people who could answer questions for me and let me know I am not alone when I have questions and concerns (hmm... support). The question of cheating has come up on a few boards and always the same reaction. How exactly do any of you feel that you are offering any kind of support by belittling someone for asking a question. I think if you were all more honest and not so self righteous you would be able to admit that everyone has had some sort of slip up big or small. How do I know this because no matter how much you are a rule follower if we were that perfect we would not be getting such a major surgery. My advice is.. still give support but give it in a way that the person will not walk away feeling like they never want to come back to the boards. Without support you can expect failure. If this is someones only menas of support you maybe setting them up to fail.

I definately think nervous is normal. I am going in for my surgery 3 days before you so I will try to post when I get home to let you know how I am feeling. I am still very nervous but I am trying to just take one day at a time. Reading all the post from people before and after is extremly helpful.

I think I am looking forward to all the things mentioned so far. The other really big thing I am looking forward to is to finally be able to see the parts of my body that have been lost for years. lol The toenails....How do you do that standing?

Where are you in your process? I am going tomorrow for pre-op lab work and to see a dietician. I guess that part is for the pre-op diet. It is amazing how the closer the surgery gets the worse my memory gets.... after doing several months of research. Probably nerves but I am so excited.
