My story comes from a lonely afternoon. I am a single mom, 39, with 2 teenaged sons. My boys were off doing their own thing, and I decided that I didn't want to grow old alone. But I then began to realize at 350 pounds, I may not grow old at all! I talked with my doc last November, and started the dieticians mtgs. My last compliance checks are finally done. I will see my surgeon again on April 7th, a week after my 40th bday. I hope he gives me the best present of all-a surgery date!

I am ready!
