I'm scheduled for November 8. Nervous but excited. I just turned 50 about 6 weeks ago and I feel my life is just about to get started. I'm praying all goes well.

Wondering if anyone can help me find a loophole here...

so i need to be at the hospital at 6am, and its about 45 min away (when you factor traffic). I currently live about 20 minutes away from my parents house (which is my legal address). Trying to think of a way i'd be able to vote, but polling places open at 6 (my district is 20 min away, not sure if i HAVE to vote there, first timer...)

IDK, anyone see a way to vote and arrive on time?

So I'm in the check in room waiting to be called back and now it's kinda hitting me. I did sleep a bit but still vary tired. I'll check in again once I'm out.

I slept 2 hour the day before my surgery and taking naps as I sit here in my hospital room. Best wishes, you'll do great!

Hmmm. Bring some good sweats and slippers, lip balm, I brought my iPad and iPod. Glasses, they wouldn't let me bring contacts for obvious reasons. I think those are the biggest helps this far. The lip balm has saved my life, they still have me NPO ( nothing by mouth) and my mouths so dry and lips would have been chapped, definitely my best friend so far, and sweat pants are so comfortable, I hate sitting here naked though lol.

Did you not have early voting? If not that's a bummer, I was able to vote absentee this year

Well they sent my ballot to the wrong address, and by the time I found out it was too late to go to the elections office and I'm in the hospital right now.

Had my surgery the 6th. Home now just a little discomfort. Hospital staff was great worst dry mouth ever the first day. The only way to sum up the discomfort is a punch in the stomach by a big brother. Well going to get comfy in my own bed so good nite all and god bless.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks
