So two weeks from today I fly to Mexicali and two weeks from tomorrow I will be sleeved. Things that I never thought could happen to me are feeling possible.

*I will be healthy enough to have babies

*My knees won't hurt

*I will not be too tired to carry my laundry up the stairs

*I won't be destined to get diabetes

*I won't be angry at Halloween when I can't find a costume to fit

*I won't be the girl with "the pretty face," I can just be the pretty girl.

*I won't need to cringe when its time for takeoff and have to ask for a seatbelt extender.

*I will know that if something goes wrong in a relationship, at work, or in play it will be because of something I did not because of how overweight I am.

*I will be able to walk into a store and know that my lack of cash might prevent me from buying the things I want, but not my booty.

*I will be able to enjoy the things I like to eat, without being obsessed.

*I will be able to have the energy to paddle the boat when I go rafting, rather than just going along for the ride.

*I will be able to finally feel like the outside of me, looks more like how I feel inside.

*When I get married, I will be able to fully give my body to my husband, and not feel ashamed or scared.

I know that this won't fix all life's problems, but life is difficult and painful all in its own and it will be so nice to be able to face those difficulties without 150 extra pounds weighing me down. I'm so excited to get started.

what a nice way to put it, i admire your way of describing all the changes you will have in your life.........and you definitely will. i wish you the best of luck, and i am sure you'll be very successful in everything that you do.:tongue_smilie:

I am right there with you, you have actually taken each and every word. :001_rolleyes: iam yet to find out my date but i just cant wait, i just hope nothing comes in the way..
