Maltese gal

Wow I never thought of doing this, great idea thank you

Amazing! This is on my goal list for after my surgery, May 28th! I can't wait to start living and feel alive again!! Congrats to you and your accomplishment

My background is Maltese and my father always used the word gal instead of girl, I would always get a laugh out of that when I tried to correct him and he'd say that's the proper way of saying it, I say gal and you say girl he'd also say, he then went on and had a novel published in 2008! Who was I to correct him eh? lol

Omg that's wonderful news! Rest well and keep us posted!

I'm May 28th! Good luck to us

Omg so exciting! Positive thoughts and prayers for you!

That's wonderful, congrats and speedy recovery to you!

Positive thoughts and prayers for you

Omg I am so sorry for your disappointment! Maybe it's best you find a more qualified surgeon because this one doesn't seem to be!

So exciting getting that call!

I'm crossing my fingers for you too! )

That's awesome! I'm May 28th

The small amount of people I told are the ones I thought would support me however I only have this group and just a few people I've told, the rest I've told aren't happy I'm doing this, I guess they don't understand, oh well I'm happy for me and I have all of my bariatric family here which is plenty and enough for me! XOXO

I'm May 28th! So nervous yet excited to start my new healthy life!

You are going to do and be fabulous hun, you have all the support you need right here with all of us on bariatric pal! I'm so happy and excited for you, I can't wait to read your first entry from the skinny side!

Good luck and everyone is beautiful in their own special way, you are a pretty flower that's going to bloom beautifully, this is our year to change for the better

My surgery is set for May 28th and I will be starting my liquid diet with something called optifast 2 weeks prior, the reason for it is to shrink the liver and the fat around the liver and that makes it easier for the surgeon to get to where he needs to during surgery without the liver getting in the way, hope that was helpful to anyone

That's too funny, that's the best feeling though lol

And thank you honeybunz! Yes I now have the pre op behind me now for the big day! You're going to do awesome too, I wouldn't have been so calm if it weren't for you and all the support I get from you all and I'm here for you too anytime! Now for a nap lol see you on here very soon

That's awesome Jess! All the best and keep us posted!

How did you do hun? When is your day?

Yay I did it! The gastroscopy went amazing! They acually put me to sleep and I felt no discomfort at all except for the freezing spray they sprayed into my throat (thought I had better gag reflexes than that ekkk gross) lol all went well with the whole pre op though, now the waiting game May 28th I am READY for you

Thank you honeybunz, I've finished with ultrasound and pharmacist so far, snuck on here between appts lol. Still have to do the gastroscopy ugg! I will post again soon

I'm not sure we'd have to check

Thank you so much again, and you are so right! God bless you with everything you need to keep it up and WIN this battle! When is your surgery and where are you from?
