    Congratulations -- big day is here! You'll be so glad for that picture to compare later. Best wishes for a speedy recovery. Walking really helped me so much -- I put some serious mileage in at the hospital, not out of pain but it's like my body knew that's what it needed. So happy for you to have made this decision for a healthy future!

    You, too, Shondel -- four more sleeps until the big day. Very exciting!

    Congrats!!! As far as the gas goes? Just keep moving. I haven't had my surgery yet but I remember that feeling from having my tubes tied.

    Glad to see there are still some banders. My Dr will not do bands any more.
