wow! alot of replies in one day. I'm so excited. ericsmom and canadasunshine.... we all have the same date! I realized yesterday how close the day is. Its really just around the corner. I'm excited nervous and every other emotion you can think of. I haven't bought or packed anything. I guess i'm still in denial. :omg: I didn't know about the other thread. I've been looking for a july thread since i got my date but i wasn't able to find one. At least not one that had any recent posts. So i guess everyone can just pick a thread. The important thing is that we all have the support we need. I can of like the idea of having a few posts because the more people on one thread the harder it is to keep up. I want to really get to know you guys. :biggrin1:

hello everyone. Well i'm 27 and married with a 5 yr old boy. I've been overweight for as long as i can remember. Everything leading up to my current size is all a blur. One day i was 160 the next day i was 265. That's me currently. It took alot for me to just decide to do it. I'm going thru alot of psychological affects. Some times i wonder if i'm doing the right thing. I can't help but feel that i should be able to do it by myself without the help of surgery. I know i've tried but i can't help think i'm stronger than this. My doctor keeps telling me that its genetics also so even if i try my hardest i may never lose the weight. I feel that she is right but i'm having a hard time accepting that i'm "fat". One day your a teenager and next thing you know you are married with a kid and weight 265. WOW! I have no idea how that happened. Well enought rambling on about me.
