TODAY, March 4, is my Lap Band Day. Today a new chapter in my life begins. A day that will change me for the better. The day I get HEALTHY!!

Sometimes, I amaze myself of how brave I am. I quit smoking cold turkey 3 years ago and now I am undergoing surgery. If you know me, you know I am a chicken, but I am slowly learning that I am not. I am a strong & confident woman who knows what she wants and is being proactive.

This strength comes from within and from my family. I thank my husband, first of all because of his job we have the insurance that we have and it's covering it 100%. So thank you Honey!!! Also due to my weight, I have been unhappy with myself and it's putting a burden on my marriage. Slowly I am liking myself again. I also need to thank these boards for all your support. You guys inspire me, to be better. Thank you.

So, wish me luck, my surgery is in the afternoon. I AM SUPER EXCITED!!!

TALK TO YOU SOON,
