It's really happening

I have been debating this decision for a long time now, at least three years or so.  Last fall I was only a step away from scheduling my surgery to be banded to then later find out I was pregnant.  Which meant putting things on hold for awhile:)  I started having terrible heartburn and had a really bad attack last week.  So I went to get some tests done and it showed I have numerous gall stones, and need to have my gall bladder removed. . . So I asked my surgeon (who also happens to be my uncle) if I could get banded and also have my gall bladder out at the same time..long story short i am now scheduled to have both procedures done together next Thursday.  I am very nervous because I am what you would call a hyper hypo, every ache and pain in my body I analyze to the T.  But I am also very excited to start my weight loss journey, and it has helped me extremely reading so many others blogs about their journey.  So the countdown begins... 9 days to my surgery:)
