ready, if they called me right now I would be at the hospital in 20 minutes.

Anyway - part of

my health issues include diabetes. I take Metformin, so at least its not the

needle. What I am

curious to know is what is your experience? My Dr. has informed me I will

probably not need

meds after surgery, the surgeon, that is, my personal physician isn't as

positive. I have lost

38 lbs. in preparation for surgery, so I no longer need to lose 100 lbs,

although, I wouldn't

mind being 107 lbs, I just think it might spook my family. I am just tired of

feeling trapped

in a fat suit, it ages me, it slows me down and frankly I feel to young to be

this way. I am so

happy I found this site, this is so much more active than the other sites I have

joined.

Hopefully this week I will be able to post my surgical date - I have a call into

my surgeon and

am awaiting a response.

Blessings and good cheer to all.
