Hello

Helll everyone. New to siite. I actually started my journey back in 2010. I had the sleeve done and lost 70lbs. Then had gallstone attacks and had to have if removed then had a post op infection that put me back in the hospital. After 2 months I healed from that. And began to workout again only to suffer a knee injury. After 4 months of steriod shots and physical therapy i ended up going back under the knife and had to spend 3 months on rehab. All of this slowed down and then stopped my weight loss. After much thought and many tears I have chossen to undergo the full bypass. 9/17/12 is my second chance. Hopefully I will get the outcome I desire. Despite all I have went through. I'm more than postive I would do it all over again. Working my way through this liquid now and It is to say the least a challange. Wishing all of u the best of luck and will con't to keep you all up to date on my progress.

Ya but the doctor came out and talked to my husband and friend. I had a lot of scare tissue

Hey Mark...your big day is to tomorrow!! I'll keep you and your doctors in my prayers. Just know the first couple of days are the hardest, but as EVERYONE says, it does get better. Walking truly is the cure for everything! When you feel up to it, let us know how you're doing!

Thank you so much I really appreciate that....

No problem! Rachael or Jessica usually keep up the list, so I'm sure they'll add you to it when they're able. Just let us know your real name too. Starting weight is optional. We'll be here to cheer you on!!
