Oh, Yenta...I'm really happy for you. I know you've gone through a lot to get to this point. And just think, next year at this time, you'll be writing as a svelte and healthier Yenta!
And Roxy, good luck with your procedure, too.

Is there such a thing as a male yenta?

I am so happy for you. A dear friend of mine had it done earlier this year and she couldn't be happier or healthier.
But a word of advice, ENJOY THAT THANKSGIVING DINNER!! It will never be the same.
Make sure you keep us posted.
Good luck to you, too, Roxy.
PEACE.

I have a friend going through this process, as well, and it is not to be taken lightly, for those that know nothing about it. It's a life-altering moment, that seriously impacts every facet of your existence.
I applaud your courage, Yenta, and your determination to have the life you know you are entitled to.
