The First Day of my New Life!!!!

[Phatcurves 3]

Greetings,

This Friday will begin my new life. These last three weeks seem to be an Atkins blur. I cant believe how strict I have been. I wish that I had confidance that I could stay on Atkins and loose 120 pounds. But truthfully I would be kidding myself. The band is the help that I need and deserve after years of failure. I am ready for the assistance. The house is stocked with Soup and pops and hard candy. My parents although divorced have flown in for support. YIKES

LOL.

Thank you all for being so supportive and full of the information that I needed. I look forward to talking to you

as a full fledged bandster.

Congratulations on getting your band. I know its something you do deserve and I know it will be our new best friend!

Thanks everyone, I am very excited and cant wait to get back and recoup.

My Dr. is Grossbard. He has been banded himself, which is nice, he can relate.

Rachel, you've been gearing up for this day for a long time! You have a wonderful life waiting for you...happier, healthier. Sending prayers for a non-eventful surgery and rapid recovery. Please let us know how you're doing when you feel up to it.

P. S. Do you think there might be a "rekindling of the flame" between your Mom and Dad? That's really sweet that they put their differences aside for you!

NO WAY, LOL, they are very nice to each other but much better apart. They each remarried years ago.. HEHE Angus, my husband said "are you going to get them a rooms with an ajoining door." Smart Ass.

Just curious, do you live in the Z-hills area? I noticed that you said Grossbard is doing your surgery. Is that going to be at the D.C. hospital? I live in D.C. and have been to one of his seminars.
