2Bonederfulagain lol I was reading your post thinking, Wow! I am just like this girl lol then I realized you're from Jersey. lol Me too!! Your "lollipop" comment was too funny!!! lol
I am scheduled to have my surgery on May 15th and feel exactly how you do. I am freaking out one moment and then the next I'm excited. This is going to be my first surgery as well so this thread was extremely comforting to know that there have been others who felt the same way. Can't wait to get this new life going!!!
Make sure to keep us updated with what is going on with you and let us know your surgery date!!!

Yes lots of prayers. I am emotionally exhausted! Not sleeping well at night, ready for "normal" again...mundane sounds awesome right about now....hehhehehe

Hope all is well mambomama!!! I can't wait to get my sleeve sometime soon as well!!! Wishing you a speedy recovery!

Paola,
I think this is awesome! I was reading your post and for some reason I started thinking about the "sisterhood of the traveling pants". I don't know if you have ever heard of that but I believe it was a book and then became a movie about friends who have a pair of jeans and they pass them to each other and even tho they all look different the jeans have a "mystery powers" because they fit all of them. lol There is much more story to it than just that BUT It just reminded me cause of how you said you and your grandmother kept passing them back and forth and then how they fit now but they didn't fit back in 2008! lol
Anyways enough rambling lol I loved your post! Thats just a great example of why we shouldn't worry so much about the number on the scale as much as losing the inches!! Great post!
P.S. You have done amazing at all of your weightloss!! Keep it up! I can't wait to start my journey soon

Awwww Jaz!!! You are very welcome!!! That was the closest thing to being there physically for you that I could think of!!!! I pray that today begins your healing inside and out... Always remember that there are people hoping, praying and thanking God for you and your recovery!!!!
Keep your head up Sis!!! I believe it's getting better..

You're welcome! Good luck!

Wow!!! I am feeling so much better now!! I hope it turns out just as great for me!! I will definitely be going to my meeting location ASAP!!! Thanks for your quick response Kristen!!! Fingers Crossed!!!! Thanks!!!

Thanks Bayougirl!! I will definitely double check on that. I spoke with my UHC Coordinator yesterday who has just linked me with my case manager RN who is going to call me in February and she didn't mention anything about the five year history so I'm keeping my fingers crossed because I know I may have a hard time coming up with 5 years worth. But I will definitely confirm the requirements when my case manager calls. Thanks!

Thanks PJ! That is definitely encouraging!! We are in pretty much the same boat. I am required to do the 6 months too. I will definitely keep updating on my progress. Wish you the best on your journey as well!!

Thank you all for your help! I hadn't thought about the gynecologist!! I will definitely try that. I will keep you all posted on how it goes. Thanks!

hmm... I have weight watchers too! Thanks Bert!
