This site has been so helpful in finding a great surgeon. After stalking this site,way before I was ready, it's time to make it happen! Time to do something for me. I'm so excited! Now time to hit the gym HARD!!! I still want to loose another 15-20 pounds, but it's go time. I lost 30 pounds recently so time to go for more. Wish me luck!
