I have a surgeon appt to sign consent papers for the surgery on 4/4. Then I get my date a few days later. It should be the end of April. I only have a 2 week pre op diet :). So excited!! My surgeon is Dr. Pohl and it will be at Roger Williams Hospital. I do go to the Miriam support group and I'm part of the FB weightloss Success striders private group. Are you? Kelley is great. Love the support groups.

Your right Kelly is awesome!! I just saw her at the pre surgery requirement meeting.. She's inspiring!! I'm not in that group.. I'll have to check that out!
