Saw the surgeon today and got my date! MAY 20th......Here we go!! Almost to "Oz" :-)

...well you are off to see the "wizard".... watch out for flying monkeys!

I've considered this my Yellow Brick Road journey....THe Land of Oz - My Sleeve :-) My "Wizard" - surgeon...who's fabulous!) You're right those "flying monkeys" (pre-diet voices telling me to eat and after) are going to be my challenge. WHen they try to derail me I will remind myself of the "Good witch Galinda's" words....."Rome/Dorothy...you have had the power within you all along" I will then "click my heels" and tell myself...."there's nothing like health and thin, there's nothing like health and thin, there's nothing like health and thin!"

Yes he was very impressive! On the day of surgery, he spent like 20 extra minutes talking with me answering my last minute panic questions. He also did my gallbladder surgery about 2 months ago.

Very knowledgeable! Very good bedside manner! I was very happy with him :-)

I will be having my gallbladder out at the same time as the sleeve being done. One recovery :-)

Having my gallbladder out too! Two for one I guess! My surgery is Wednesday and I am just starting to get nervous!

I got my sleeve done today and my gallbladder out as well... So far so good...
