You know when I started my journey I decided I would keep up with my blog, with my measurements and pictures.  It didn't work so well,  but the surgery worked wonders.  Here I am about a week from a year I have lost 117 pounds and I am only 3 pounds from my goal.  I feel great and can hardly believe how thin I have gotten.  Never in my dreams did I think that I would fit into a size 7 and wear a small.  I would try a smaller size on if I had one.  I think having this surgery is one of the best things I did in my life.  

I had to be at the hospital at 5:30 in the morning for a 7:30 surgery.  Living 4 hour away from the hospital I was required to spend the night in a hotel in Concord.  We choose to stay at the Holiday Inn Express.  We made that decision for many reasons.  One is there is a lot of places for my husband to get something to eat and a lot of places to walk around if we got board.  The rooms were very nice and they gave us a reduced rate of 65.00 per night.  We woke up and arrived at the hospital right at 5:30.  They took me right back and time went so quickly.  They put me in a gown, and stared and IV.  When it was time they gave me something and said this will make you a little drowsy.  They started wheeling me away and that is all I remember.  The next thing I remember was waking up in my room.  The nurses at CMC were wonderful.  I have never had such good service at any hospital!  I could not of picked a better doctor.
