    Thank you Pam!! I just want to be able to CONTROL my eating, and build my relationship with food all over again!!
    I have been a binge eater my entire life! Lost over 100lbs on my own the unhealthy way.. but now I need to get back to basics!! Because I am tall, I carry the weight well, but the scale and my BMI says im over weight.. lol

    I'm leaving tomorrow morning for my surgery tomorrow �� I would add Passport, flip flops to wear in the shower, and travel size Clorox wipes (clean remotes, phones, counter tops). Also I plan to bring some maxi dresses to wear following surgery, might be more comfortable than pants.

    this is the list they sent me as well... someone told me to also take some Imodium as you could have diarrhea on the flight home. Also some crystal light sugarless flavor stuff to add to water if you want some flavor, book to read, I was advised to either take off my artificial nails or make sure all color nail polish is off ( anesthiologist checks nail buds for changes in color)

    good luck !!!! I have my surgery next week !!! update us on your experience.
