Hello, I'm about 2 months pre op and wondering is the anyone else on here that's in my city that's about to change their lives ...

Thanks.. i had lab work on monday and normal range is up to 4.2 and im at 6.27. If its postponed i can only be upset w myself but want to be safe overall. Maybe they will do another test next week. I started pre op diet on tuesday and lost 3 lbs already so im happy w that.

Might take only a few weeks to stabilize. 3 pounds less you'll have to lose after surgery! Yay!

I know!!!! Very happy and i will stay on this diet even if they postpone so hopefully will still be losing so im good either way. Thanks for the positive spin on it. I feel much better!

Thats so great!!! Ive been wondering how you are. Im all ready.. i saw Angela at the Univ on Monday and said i met someone on a forum and she said your so nice and great to deal with' date=' she was happy and laughed when i said but i only know her screen name LOL! I am nervous because she said if my thyroid is out of whack they may have to postpone surgery. So ive been takin my meds and praying. I wanted to ask you if you had to have an ekg or see a cardiologist? I didnt and dont knw if i shld ask abt it.[/quote']

I did not know you were at the university of Chicago. It is nice to know that I have people on here that come from the same hospital. By the way I love Angela to pieces and she keeps it real honest with you.

Hi! Oh wow how cool! Yes Angela is great and keeps it very real lol. Ilove that about her. So which dr did your surgery? How are you feeling?

I had dr Hussain and he is so nice. I am doing well. I had surgery on 8/29 and it has been a little bit of a struggle just pulling everything together each day. I am down 22 pounds since surgery but total since starting the process 39. If you need another sister along this road I am here.
