That looks sooo good!Cory on pawn stars has the bandI'm from the grand rapids area. And I believe the group of surgeons are from Grand Health Partners. I know there is Dr. Baker and Dr. Foote and two more I can't remember names to. I am having surgery on the 13 with Dr. Foote and I have been so impressed with all of the Doctors and staff! I highly recommend them!Thanks so much for the replys! Makes me feel better! I've been kinda worried about them canceling because of it!Thanks so much for the replys! Makes me feel better! I've been kinda worried about them canceling because of it!So I'm scheduled for surgery next Monday and I get a freaking cold! GAH!! Has anyone else gotten a cold this close to D-day? I have my last check in with the doc on Thursday....praying I'm better by then!My date is May 13th! I go in the morning for my pre op appt.....also find out what all I have to do on my 2 week liquid diet. I'm getting so excited!*bypassI am still pre op, May 13th is my day....I have been researching WLS for the past 3 years and I have been on VST for over a year now and from what I've seen is if you work hard and follow the directions you are given you can losse very close to the same as a person with gastric bipass. I chose the sleeve bc I have 4 kids and want to be able to be a "normal" mom. I feel like a prisoner in my fat body and don't want to be a prisoner in my skinny body! For example, I want to eat a small peice of my kids b-day cake and not get sick bc of dumping syndrome! I am always on the side line and I want to fully participate in life!
