  1. Thanks for inviting everyone, Rebekah. Is the FB group secret? I'm not telling people - other than my husband - about the surgery.I'm not telling anyone except my boyfriend and my parents. How has it been so far for you? Sorry, I know it's off topic! I only told my parents my friends have a skewed version that explains why I can't do things the way I used to That's good I had to get my gall bladder out too so I am just explaining that the diet is because of that. But honestly, I'm having to be on a liquid diet for four weeks post op and it's becoming difficult to explain and people are definitely getting suspicious and are trying to feed me (something that's hard when I am definitely craving real foods).

Getting ready to go to the hotel near the hospital now! I will definitely be sure to bring a pillow! I'm pretty nervous... Haha

  6. Hi! I am having the Gastric Sleeve surgery on August 12th. I will definitely ask my surgeon, but, I am wondering if I would be able to still attend a concert on the 22nd of August. Does anyone think this is too soon? I really do not know what to expect in terms of recovery as this is my first surgery. Thanks!
  7. I'm from Portland! We should definitely all meet up! I'm getting my surgery on the 12th of August and am definitely looking to connect with people
  8. I'm August 12th! Good luck everyone!
