    Should I revise my goal now that I made my initial one? Goal was 155 - currently 154.8 - I wonder where I will end up?

    Congrats on your decision. I had VSG with Dr Kelly on Jan 6, 2011 - and it has been the best gift I ever gave myself! I made my final goal yesterday! Less than 10 months out and at goal - amazing. I flew out on on Weds Jan 5th - had surgery on the 6th (thurs) and flew home on the 10th (Monday). I think I could have come home Sunday but it was nice to have one more day of Trish and Dr Kelly visiting me at Hotel Lucerna and taking care of me! I traveled alone - no problem what so ever. I was never really alone unless I wanted to be. My only suggestion is take your time and take care of YOU. If you are going to get better rest at the hotel than at home (where the kids are) then stay until Monday. Dr Kelly really can tell you what he requires and what is optimal for best results. I wish you the very best - let me know if you have any questions- Enjoy your journey!

    Halloween (Oct. 31) - What will you Weigh?

    Kimmes replied to LilMissDiva Irene's topic in Gastric Sleeve Surgery Forums

    Booo - didn't mean to scare you on Halloween I a mean boo - I missed my Halloween goal by exactly 1 pound. My goal was 155 and today I am 156.0 - BUT that means I am only 1 pound away from my final goal of 155! WHOOT! Hope to be there by my birthday on Nov 17th - that was my target date for making my final goal. So I think I can do it - one pound in the next 17 days??? - I can do that!

    Sending prayers and cyber hugs to you! The journey is amazing - rest well and take care of yourself - soon you will be on the loser bench. Please say hi to Trish and Dr Kelly for me - Kim from Minnesota. I was sleeved there on Jan 6th - I am one pound away from my final goal - truly a blessing! God bless!

    I has vsg on Jan 6, 2011 with Dr Kelly. My hubby did not go but was super supportive. I am 2 pounds away from my goal. Let me know if I can talk to your husband or if he would like tow Speak with mine!

    Good luck to you dear - all I can say is I too went to Mexico....and had surgery with Dr Kelly and have not and will not regret the decision ever...EVER. I feel Dr kelly was an amazing surgeon, wonderful Christian man who held my hand and said a prayer before surgery and was there when I woke up. He called on me at the hotel every day and night. I never would have that kind of care in the US His assistant Trish was so kind and caring - I am 9 months out and she just called me last week to see how I am doing. I consider her a friend. I am 2.8 pounds away from my final goal of 155. Stay the course friend. Sometimes we have to be strong and do what we really know is the right thing for us personally. I love this old saying: You can never cross the ocean, unless you have the courage to lose sight of the shore! Hang in there my friend! Sending you prayers and cyber hugs.
