Thanks for the update. So glad that surgery is complete and you're on to recovery. Rest and recuperate. You had a long day yesterday.

SoCalDixieGal I'm just popping in to check up on you. I pray all is well and you are having a smooth recovery. Update us when you're up to it.

I'm the 26th also. Preop diet starts today, almost in the home stretch!

I like Amanda's idea. Although I guess they are doing this on a constant basis so they are probably pretty accustomed to long days in surgery. I would probably be concerned also.

You guys are hilarious. I have truly enjoyed VST today! Such a sweet dysfunctional family! He he he:)

Me too. I must admit I want a piece of King Cake being as though its Fat Tuesday and all! I was seriously thinking about starting one day later. I never did a food funeral. Oh well, so much for that.

Laura-ven I just adore you and your spirit.

I know you're aggravated especially since you've been there since early this am. Your turn is coming. Soon it will all be behind you.

Have any of you started your preop diet yet?

I have the same date. Hooray for us!

I've never hard that one and that's funny as he$&!

That's what I keep telling myself. I can't wait to be able to wear some skinny jeans, boots and a nice shirt without having to cover my fat rolls. I would never wear something like that now.

My hair is naturally thick (so my stylist and everyone else says). So hopefully when it sheds it won't be so apparent. I have had times where it shed really bad mainly due to stress and I thought it was so noticeable. I cut it short and could hardly tell but I don't want to go back to a short do. It's so much maintenance.

Well hopefully things move along pretty fast. Are you traveling alone?

Congrats to both you ladies! You look fabulous!

Oh I just realized your title. So you're back on for the 15 rather than the 18? Congrats to you! To bad it couldn't be the 26 with me .

I am following you on your journey. I will be exactly 11 days behind you so I guess that will make us sleeve sisters. I am praying for us both.

Keep us posted. Hopefully you won't have to wait that long. Sending warm well wishes your way!

I just read the entire thread. I'm so sorry you are going through this. I pray that you begin to fell better soon. Good for you for changing doctors and being an advocate for your own healthcare. I agree that a fresh set of eyes may prove beneficial.

Congrats! Sending well wishes your way!
