Default Coz here I come!

Next time you hear from me I will be in Coz, not wearing much and getting fit and tan. Eat your hearts out! Yup, now that IS bragging!

And I deserve it. I am so absolutely in awe that this former 370 pound sloth is actually going to go SCUBA, snorkel. parasail, horseback ride, no rental car, only bikes (no board sailing or surfboarding my fellow injury prone wlsers!). And all funded by money I didn't spend on junk food and drinks!

You guys know how some people the wls is too risky, riskier than being grossly mo? Wee, I personally would NOT GIVE THIS UP FOR THE ENTIRE WORLD!!!

Not only that, I could actually buy a really nice looking swimsuit that actually fits! Sigh, too bad about the saggy thighs, but I don't think the guys are looking there, are they guys? LOL! Amazing what several thousand dollars and a couple of implants can do!

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Thanks, but are you kidding? That's what internet cafes overseas are for. The kids will "need" to go, so I might as well check in, right?

Now, don't you guys get down on me if I have a high here. I earned it, long and slow and steady. I remember once I posted when something good happened to me and a person replied I had better be careful because I sounded manic and will undoubtedetly experience a severe depression soon.

F that! I don't even care if people think I am manic. Get real! This is waaaay better than being 370, sitting in a chair, drinking, eating junk and watching reruns!

This is life! If it's true that I need to experience lows to feel highs, bring it on. It is so much better tha not feeling at all.

Talking Not Manic!!

JUST EXCITED!!!

Wish I was going to COZEMEL!!! Wow...sounds like a fun filled adventure! I know exactly how you are feeling, I'm excited for you.....just wish I could slip in your suitcase! LOL.

I absolutely LOVE Snorkling.....I went on a cruise in 2002 to the British Virgin Islands....and then later to the Virgin Islands....and snorkling was something I discovered that I LOVE sooooo much! I was about 300# when I did it, and I remember I was feeling pretty confident...and didn't even wear a wrap on the sail boat! It wasn't until I got my pictures back from that trip that I wondered, "WHAT the *!&%@#* was I thinking!!!???"

Hope you have a FABULOUS time.....please take LOTS of pictures...I can't wait to see them!!!

Hey, btw...I sending you a PM...if you don't get to it until you get back, that's ok...

Vicki... You deserve to party till the sun comes up!!!!

You have done such a wonderful job!

Have a blast. And who the hell cares if you are manic...LOL
.
We have every right to be....just like so many others here that have had WLS.
Take lots of pictures and share with us when you get home.

Dance , Party, Swim, do whatever your heart desires....you have earned every ounce of it!

Hugs,
