I hear that Nicci. My first surgeon consult is this Friday, eeek! But we can do this. We can freakin' do this!!....Right? Best of luck.

hahaha! JMarshall :-) that was the perfect video clip for how I am feeling :-P I know there is still another 5-6 months ahead of me but it just became real when they set up the consult :-)

_Babysteppin' I hope we can do this, I'm so flippin nervous.....my big hang up is "dont let me die, I dont wanna die needlessly" lol and I'm sure we all have that thought. Oh and please don't let me have any complications! However, on the other hand it is such a giddy feeling to think in 6months post-op I could go from 300lbs down to 150lbs :-) My kids are my inspiration for this, my 6y/o twins tell me all the time they dont want a fat mom and that they wish I wasnt fat, but my sweet little 3y/o tells me not to have the surgery that I am her mommy and she loves me just the way I am (she gives the best answers) :-)

Hi everyone, my name is Nikki and I too am very nervous, schedule my surgery for nov 19th......butterflies are in my stomach the closer I get. I am so glad I found this site!!
