No cake this year!! LOL..LOL... Iam currently on my 2 week Pre-Op food program..... Labs this week....Pre-Op with Surgeon...Dental Appointment...Hair appointment...Pedicure.... All things important to feeling good about yourself going in. I will be thinking about all my OCTOBER buddies and wishing them much success.

My birthday is October 11!!! I am having my birthday cupcake this weekend before I start the liquid diet next Monday. How has it been going for you?

Happy for you!!!!!! Its been a rough go for me due to Covid delays, elevated A1C levels that would not come down.....and finally everything came together. It will be one year since I started my journey and first visit to my surgeon. I had to complete all the requirements for my surgeon which took a long time... All the info I put into my profile is wrong and I don't know how to change it...cant find a way to edit the info...so its frustrating!!! Libra girls are so wonderful....we are blessed to be born in October..... Careful you only have one cupcake...eat it slowly and really enjoy it....... Good luck and stay connected!!!!!
