      I can understand how you feel. I lost my own mother 15 years ago, but I still miss her. For a few years after she passed, I would find myself wanting to call her and let her in on whatever was going on. But you know what? My memories of her are so strong that she stays in my heart and I can imagine her saying things that I need to hear. With time, you will hurt a little less and rejoice a little more that you were blessed with such a mother.

      Hey sista girl, of course you miss her, and always will. 9 years later I miss my mom like she left yesterday. Sometimes I think I see her in the street, but it's just someone who reminds me of her. Tell her happy birthday, tell her about the plans you have, tell her how much you miss her. I was alone during my surgery because the only two people who I would of shared this with both died the same year. My mom and sister is forever in my heart. Your mom will be forever in yours. Have a good pre op tomorrow and I wish you peace and blessings.

      Let me start by admitting that I love my sleeve and definitely did not want the bypass. I was completely turned off by the permanent malabsorption of micronutrients associated with the bypass. That being said, I think you should research all the different surgeries and make whichever choice seems best for you. What works for me may not be perfect for someone else.

  14. For the people who have already had your operation what have been the most furstraiting part for you in your journey so far

      The most aggravating part for me was the pre-op process of meeting all of the insurance requirements and agonizing over waiting for the approval. The surgery and recovery and habit changes have been no problem.

      It depends on how you heal. I was back in the gym 2½ weeks after. I had no complications or pain. I was taking water aerobics and had to wait for the incisions to scab before I could get back in the pool. I was walking from day1. Just listen to your body and when you get tired, stop.

      ok cool I will keep that in mind
