Okay Amy I took your idea about the personal thread, what a great idea. Ok well I got my pedi today with a friend of mine and it really helped me to relax. I didn't get the neon color I had talked about because my friend has breast cancer that went with me so I got the breast cancer pink on my toes for her. Then we spent the rest of the day together and it was great until I got ready to leave. She is the strongest person I know and has been through so much in her life but when she hugged me good bye she started to cry and then I started to cry. I told her I would be fine and not to worry and that I would be back before here next Chemo treatment. That was the first emotional breakdown I have had. Actually, I was only crying because she was crying, that's what good friends do right? Well anyway big girl panties are on and I am going to bed(or try anyway)so I can sleep for a few hours. I have to leave the house at 3:20am eastern time. I will keep u guys up on my journey as much as possible.

Safe travels and chin up! I'm getting tiny freak-outs already and I hope they don't get worse (sleeved on the 28th). It feels like waiting for your turn to jump out of the plane hoping the parachute is packed properly. So anything and everything you tell us helps the next folks in line calm down a bit. Thanks in advance for your report(s)!

I will try to give as much detail as possible. I know that I hung on every word of somebody that posted lots of detail and it really helped to keep me focused.

Ok so I had my alarm set for 3am but for some reason I woke up and quickly looked at the clock like my alarm didn't go off and I was going to miss my plane. IT'S WAS ONLY 2:17. My heart has just calmed down. I can't even be mad that I woke up early because I was so greatful for the sleep that I did get and for not being late. Well guess I will start getting ready. Yay it really really here!!!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
