    Dear God, Please watch over Ed's doctors tomorrow and guide their hands as they remove his excess skin. Please also bring Ed (and his family) calming comfort tonight as he prepares for this next step in his healthier lifestyle and lead him through the next few weeks with as little pain as possible. Thank you, God. Amen.

    I've just come across one of your posts for the first time. WOW!! It's pretty impressive, what you've been able to accomplish. Pretty amazing stuff. Best of luck and prayers for you for tomorrow and the following days of recovery! And an extra one for tonight as well. I imagine sleep might be a bit elusive at this point so prayers for a peaceful evening for you :).

    Praying God will be with you before, during & after your surgery. That he would guide the doctor's hand and would give all who will be in contact with you Wisdom from above. According to Matthew 18:18 "I bind anything that try's to come against you and loose the Holy Spirit to cover you from the top of your head to the bottoms of your feet In Jesus Name! Jesus died on the cross for our salvation and all who comes to Jesus and make him Lord & Savior of their life will be saved. Be sorry for your sins and trust Jesus to make you clean. This also includes healing and when two or more pray in my Name I will hear their prayer and open up the gates of Heaven and receive it. You are covered with the Blood of Jesus! I also pray that Jesus will give you His peace, courage & strength from above!

    Not overly religious myself, but this goes for me, too. I'll send good mojo from Canada. :flowerforyou:

    I'm gonna check out your blog now...this may give me the push to get my legs done, although I am seeing some success in weight lifting to take care of the loose skin (I only lost 70lbs) but I never felt my legs matched my abs and upper body so maybe this will help me to make a decision!

    I just shot up a prayer for you and good luck! Keep us all posted!! :)

    I am thinking about your AND your wife. Sending out positive thoughts for your surgery, that your surgeon has the gift of steady and crafty hands and that your recovery is full of all things positive.

    I bookmarked your blog and will be watching for the updates. Good luck to you...Kiss your bride ;-) She'll be waiting for you on the other side of surgery tomorrow!
