    First of all, congrats!!! That's wonderful!! You are truly an inspiration! That is an amazing weight loss!!! Praying for a smooth surgery and wisdom for your doctors. Please keep us updated on your surgery and recovery.

    I am also considering this type of surgery, although I have not lost as much as you have, I have alot of loose skin that just seems to be hanging around. LOL!! Sorry, couldn't resist the pun. So I will be anxious to hear how everything goes and how long your recovery time is and how long it will be before you can workout again.

    Good luck and rest easy, we're praying for you. :smile:

    Good luck, I am betting recovery will be less painful than the blood, sweat and tears you put in to lose the weight :)

    You are sooo inspirational!! Thank you for sharing this with us...I for one will be waiting to see the results from the surgery, and sending you good thoughts and happy prayers! :happy:

    Thank you for having the courage to share this with us!!! I am hoping that I will not have to have the surgery when I get low enough, but if I do, I will know somewhat what to expect.

    Be safe, and see you when you get back to us :):flowerforyou:

    You are an absolute HERO. What you have done is so amazing. This surgery will be a minor blip on the radar. You are freaking Superman! :D

    Wishing you the very best for the next step in this weight loss journey- getting rid of the excess baggage. Your postings were one of the first I ran into when I signed on this past June. I am still inspired by your candid story & even more inspired by your blog postings and gutsy pre- surgery photos. You are so right, those black clothes sure can conceal a lot!!! I can't wait to see the new you once surgery is over and you're back to yourself again. Wishing you a successful problem & pain free surgery and looking forward to updates on how things went.
