Congrats to everyone who's had their surgery & good luck to all of you scheduled this month. Had my surgery on the 1st & feeling really well. Still on clear liquids, but already walking about a mile & a half in the mornings. No "Speed Racer" here but getting it done. It definitely helps with the gas & bloating. Incisions are starting to look like they're healing, just every once in a while it feels like I get my port hung on a rib. Wow! That smarts! Love having an outlet to voice concerns and triumphs with others experiencing the same.

Headed to Mexico March 31st, Dr. Ortiz will be doing the procedure. I know 3 others personally that have had their procedure done there and are happier than ever about the experience.

April 1st can't get here soon enough. Talked to the trainer at my gym & setting my goals. Looking forward to feeling great!
