Fellow Pre-Ops - What NSV are you most looking forward to?
For me, being able to just walk or run without being in so much pain and winded. Right now I can barely walk 5 minutes without by back seizing up, and about 10 minutes before I get winded.

Getting off of diabetes medication is my biggest hope!
i am also looking forward to a new wardrobe! I feel like I have never really got to dress the way I want because I had to wear what was available not what reflects me as a person. I can't wait to be the preppy princess I've always dreamed of being! :)
