Hi All

So excited :grouphug: :frown3:

I had my consultation early feb and was weighed etc & due to work

committments could not have surgery until mon 28/04/08.

I must confess & after consultation went 'food crazy' saw it as 'last

chance saloon' & ate lots of rubbish (there confession over!)

So was really worried when went back for pre-op tests would weigh

more than I did in feb...but I have managed to pull myself back & been

on low-fat pre-op diet for 3 weeks & now weigh 5 kg less than in Feb. :biggrin2:

I consider monday as my new birthday & can't wait to stop my life

time of obesity...

Just thought I would share my thoughts & joy & is it normal to be

this excited?

Congratulations, Gingercat! I am still pre-op, so can't say if your excitement is natural from personal experience, but I would think it is. I hope I feel the same when it's my turn!

Good luck and post as soon as you feel up to it!

God Bless, Gingercat! See you on the OTHER side

You know there is power in words... and when u said that "You will consider monday as your new birthday" A light bulb went off and I am there right with u. Turning points in your life are always marked with a date. Who says you can't have 2-birthday's.. ahhh I love it... and congrats...:thumbup::grouphug:

Thank you all for your kinds words of support & encouragment :huh2:

Still excited & feel like a kid at christmas :w00t:

Will post again when back home after opening my present (but in

my case my stomach !)

Take care all

Gingercat xx
