That is what I am, a big dreamer. When I found out I was going to get this surgery I tried out at our local community theater for a show. I have always loved to perform but the more weight I put on the more embarassed I would feel and wouldn't try out. Well I tried out and got one of the main roles. I was so excited and scared because I didn't want to look like me up there. I got the surgery and made a promise to myself to do whatever I could to lose at least 30 lbs by opening night. Well my friends, my show opens on Saturday and I am down 32ish pounds. I am so proud of myself!!!! :shades_smile: Think of me on Saturday and send me good vibes, I will need it. It starts at 7:30 pm EST so think of me then. I LOVE THIS PLACE!!!

I don't even know you and I am so proud! I can realate to not being so outgoing. I want to but...I don't feel confident. I will this summer though!!

I am getting my band on the 27th!!!

I will be thinking of you on Sat. Have fun.
