How are you doing Lillie? I finally have my surgery date - Dec 22! I'm excited, scared, nervous and not sure what else!

Congratulations on your first 40 pounds! That is amazing. Glad to hear your drain is out and it wasn't too bad. Hang in there - I'm thinking you will feel better every day, especially as that scale goes down! How much are you hoping to loss? Not that it matters, cuz anything we can lose is awesome! I would like to lose about 165 pounds. Sounds a bit overwhelming! Take care & stay in touch.

Glad to hear you are cleared for all exercise, but....I meant - Did you have to do a cardio clearance before your surgery?

OMG - I just saw - you are over 100 lbs lost! Congratulations! You are doing AMAZING!!! You must feel so much better. I can't wait to get this weight off and be able to move again! BTW - Love your new picture!

Deb -

Did you have to have cardio clearance with Dr. Hoehn?

Hope you are feeling better. Walk and move - I hear that really helps with those nasty gas pains. (I'm preop so no real experience to share with you.) Just wanted you to know I'm sending good vibes your way and hoping you are feeling better!

Checking in on you. How are you doing?

When is your surgery? I know it is coming up. Mine is Dec. 22 and I am needing to lose about the same and you. I am planning to start on South Beach today in hopes of jump starting my weight loss and getting my head in the right place!! Renee

P.S. Deb (Dansha) is my mentor and my inspiration. I see she is on your friend list too!!

Just added you on my friend list. I see you are from Kansas too and your surgery is scheduled for tomorrow. Wishing you a uneventful surgery and a speedy recovery!! Who is your surgeon? Post when you can and let us know how you are doing. I am scheduled for Dec. 22 with Dr. Hoehn in KC.

I finally have a date - Dec 22! Am excited, nervous and not sure what else......It has taken so long to get thru all the preop stuff and then I started a new job so I had to put it off. Anway, just wanted to let you know. (I'm wannabethin but had to rejoin as I could not sign in after the website change - so now am wannabethinn!) Hope you are doing well. Renee

Thanks Deb. I wish I was closer to KC as I live about 2 hours away. I am hoping I can find a support group locally or maybe start one. Maybe we can connect when I am up in KC for appointment with Dr. Hoehn. I would love to meet you. You are doing great!
