I've done it now!

Well - that's it then.....I've paid the money to the Doctor! The countdown begins and I can't wait.
I've been thinking of all the reasons I really want to lose the weight. Some of them are common amongst all of us!

* I want to see my little girl grow up, get married - all the bells and whistles!
* I want to show her how to play tennis
* I want to play tennis myself!
* I want to be more physically able to help my older daughter Jess. If I was fitter I'd feel more able, capable and would cope much better. This would also give my husband (John) more freedom.
* I'd like to feel sexy again.
* I want to go on holidays to an Island resort and feel great about being there - I would never even go there the way I am at the moment.
* I don't want people making allowances for me anymore.

There's a lot of "I's in there but I also think it's time to make it all about me.

Congratulations Kathy - what a great feeling to have it all paid! Something very satisfying and exciting about it.

I don't see anything thing wrong in doing this surgery for yourself - sometimes it is the first truly selfish thing we have done for ourselves in years. Saying that though, it is still the best gift we can give our families.

I'm very excited for you! xox

LOL - paying the $$$. Remember when I had my surgery? The bank thought I was putting a 4th bedroom on the house. Everytime I buy some new clothes that actually fit I giggle!!! And, I must add - here I am TWELVE (yes 12) years later and I've never ever regretted it. It was worth every cent.
Love you.
