Ok everyone since we are getting close to December I figured I would go ahead and start us up a post op thread

Waiting in pre op. so excited! The stupid magnesium citrate stuff is still in affect. And I can't stop running to the bathroom. Ahhhhhh Ill update as soon as I can. ❤

Thank you all for your advice and support..unfortunately I guess you're all right..this morning I asked her of she wanted to go for a Walk with me she cussed me out and said some cruel things to me..wow..all I did was change the size of my stomach I didn't at all change my personality...people are terrible she has had me crying all morning

I am so sorry. I know this is hard but please don't take it personally. You are doing what is best for you and if she can't handle it that is her issue. If she truly is a friend she will come around, apologize for her bad behavior and accept the fact that you are doing this for you regardless of what those around you think. If she doesn't, then you held your friendship closer to you than she does and it wasn't unbreakable for such a little thing to break the friendship. I'm sorry for your loss.

Thank you..

Hello journey buddy!! And yes...it's like I can't believe it's here and this is happening in 48 hrs we will both be there and probably post-op by then. I can't even think about it too much or I'll get panicky! Ahaha. Keep in touch with me and let me know how you're doing when you can and I'll do the same! ")

Today is crazy! I went ahead and worked today because I am going to miss my students so much!! I drank the magnesium citrate stuff and am playing the waiting game now. I think today everything set in a little more. I am nervous about everything becoming really real tomorrow. I am praying for you and everyone else that surgery and recovery goes well. I will definitely keep in touch and am so excited about all of this!!

Wishing everyone good luck. 8/3/12 -80 lbs

Yeah. I'm happy for you. How do you feel?

I'm so sorry. I just don't understand some people.

Trust me, you will find much better friends out there..the kind that accept you. I do feel a bad for your friend only in the sense that she is so bitter within herself that she can't accept people for who they are...it's really not a reflection on you so try not to take it to heart..i have a feeling she treats everyone in the same manner...surround yourself with other positive people for now and who knows, you just might be the example that will wake her up

Had my surgery on Dec 10th and got to come home tonite. I couldn't go to the bathroom so the nurse had me smell peppermint and I finally went.

Glad to hear you are home! Wishing you continued and uneventful healing.

AMEN!!!!! Surgery today... Im getting really nervous and scared.....

Praying over you and your medical care givers today!

Wishing everyone good luck. 8/3/12 -80 lbs
