Today is surgery day. We'll be leaving in 30 minutes. I'm hoping there are no complications and that I can lose this weight for good.

I won't ever forget how it is- the stigma associated with obesity, not to meantion the health issues and depression.

I vow not to ever lose the humility and empathy that being this big has helped create. It is one very endearing quality that we all have.

See ya on the other side.

Good luck to you on your journey. I pray that you have a speedy recovery. As always, keep us posted on your post op progress.

Woohoo! Good luck! I'm sure it will go awesome =)

Good luck! I have the same sentiments, I vow to always remember what it was like to be a larger person and suffer from that discrimination! Keep us posted on how it goes.

Good luck love and congrats to you for beginning a new journey!!

That is a great resolve. ( is that the right word?)

Some of my great friends have forgotten who they were and where they came from after they got thin.I found it really sad at first but now I just think it will come back to bite them on the behind,like things usually do.

Good luck with your surgery and keep us posted as to how you are doing.

I agree 100%. A friend of mine told me about a co worker that had wls and lost big time- she then started preaching to everyone that they just had to eat right and exercise...... um... excuse me?
