P,
you have everyright to feel good about your body image and your health. I know you will feel so much relief to have these procedures behind you. Imagine what it will be like to have less tummy to grab onto. (speaking from personal experience!). I think that it is nice that you have built in a reward for yourself even as you are getting prepared for a big surgery.Don't listen to people who bring you down. Why would they do that? Maybe because it affects them personally, and they speak from their own best interests, not yours?
Well, babble is here to support you, and not to judge you harshly. you are a very strong person, and you can make it through this part too.
and 61 is NOT old! -Ll
