Hope all is well. I am 72, had surgery in November 2015 and have no regrets.
I not losing as quickly a some because I am unable to excercise but I have lost a total of 45 lbs so far.
Good luck and stay encouraged!!!

Dear Jamie,
I am Shirley and I thank you so much for your video.
I am having my surgery the day after Thanksgiving: in 4 more days. I am excited and nervous because I am a senior and am concerned about complications.
Several things about your video encouraged me. First, I admire that you are open and honest about yourself. We're all I this for much of the same reasons and it's great to have a platform so we can just be who we are. In addition, you were correct in going to the hospital. I too have concerns about clots. I recently had s stent pout in my leg so I have to be on alert. Your message told me not to second guess or delay.
Third, I do appreciate your showing the incisions. I had no idea how large/small they would be.
Thank you, thank you brave girl.
I hope to be hearing from you from time to time. I need someone like you to keep me encouraged as I will be going home alone.
I wish you well in your journey and say a little prayer for me on Friday morning.
Blessings

I'll be praying for you and want to hear about your progress. I have surgery on the 27th and need all the prayers I can get.

I having surgery on the 27th, the day after thanksgiving. I'm a senior and am both excited and nervous.
I'll be going to the the hospital and retuning home alone so please pray there will be no complications.
I'm glad for this support venue and hope to hear from many. I did not want to inform anyone except my family who are all out of state so I will be leaning on you for support.
