I feel the same way. My surgery is August 8th. I will be 40 on the 25th. I hope it's all worth it!!

Thanks and good luck to you too!

We all hit a wall. I had nto exactly made the decision yet, but knowing I had a tumor and knowing I may have partially caused that with the abdominal fat - plus diabetes, PLUS they couldnt even "see" the tumor till I lost some weight...it was enough.

Good luck to you in your journey.

I'm happy that you're making so many positive changes in your life. I know it seems like it's going soooooo slowwww but trust me, it will be by in a snap and you will be on the loser's bench =)

I know right? It's like i'm sick of being fat already is that so bad? 16 years of chubbiness, and constant dieting I'm simply done with that because it doesn't work. I don't need all sorts of fancy reasons to get this surgery. No i'm not scared at all, i need this surgery yesterday!

I'm right there with ya Tisa! I have been waiting for the last three years to get this done! I know how hard it is to wait but I keep telling myself I've waited this long so what's a little longer? When I feel down I say MY day WILL come!!
