What excites you most about the surgery? Being able to buy clothes in the regular size department. When I was a kid I actually bought clothes in the " chubby" department.... Yes that is what it was called.

What scares you the most? Nothing.... I am so excited. When I first started the process I would come one from work sick to my stomach from stressing out about this. I finally decided if I am going to do this then let's do it. I am no longer scared.
