I have been dealing with weight issues my whole life and I have finally come to a place where I can deal with those issues and lose the weight.

I know because I won in June that I could not win in July. I do not want to join this challenge to win. I am participating because I need you guys and your support.

I am a little worried because on Monday I weigh in at the hospital again and because it is a holiday I will have to weigh in using the nutritionist's scale and it is not a big one so I always weigh heavy. UGH. I will just deal with it I guess.

After I weigh in I have my fourth nutrition class. After this class I only have two more to go to before I am ready to prepare for the gastric bypass. The classes are once a month. Hopefully I will be having the surgery by the end of October/beginning of November.

Once again, thank you so much for being here and for all the support that we give to each other on this journey.

You guys rock!
