  1. Ohhhh, this is sooo me! I am petrified about having this surgery. I've had a hysterectomy, then 2 months later went back to have my ovaries removed, and had ankle surgery and had to be off for a few weeks. I never ever thought anything about blood clots! Are the risk the same of getting blood clots with those surgeries as this one? I've sure thought about not having it, but I know I will gain, and lose, and gain more if I don't have it. Can someone ease my nerves?! I'm scheduled for April 18.


  2. Navyma, you'll get it before you know it! Btw, I like your profile name! I was a Navy Mom, but my oldest is now out and in college. I'm now a Air force Momma to two active duty sons! Proud of my boys and all of what they do, as well as ALL the Armed Forces! Next time they see me, they won't recognize me! One deploys a few days after my surgery, and the other is deploying later in the year. I sure do MISS my fellas!


  3. You'll get there! I'm scheduled April 18. I'm 5'5", and weigh 267. Had to do the stress test on the treadmill. ..did bring tennis shoes, had a sweater on, told me to take it off. Thank goodness I had a tank underneath. So...walking treadmill barefoot, tank on, AND a HOT CARDIOLOGIST in there watching. ..totally humiliated, but kept telling myself, he's seen lots of big chicks. This time next year, we'll be smokin' hot! :D
