Well, it is finally here. Today I am having my surgery. I have to be at the hospital at 1:53 and surgery is at 3:53. I have already had a meltdown this morning. I am so nervous. Not about the surgery or that anything will go wrong because I have the good Lord on my side. I don't know why I am so nervous. Breathe! Prayers are welcome.

Yay!! How exciting. Good luck and keep us posted

Best of luck!!! You got this!!!

Prayer already said! About an hour before your surgery, I have my last Aetna weigh-in. I hope that I'll be following in your footsteps soon! The Lord's got this! Just breathe!

Good luck!!! It is life changing!

Good luck on your journey! You are going to be so happy you did this!

Saying a little prayer that all goes well!

Good luck!! You will do well. Please keep us updated.

Good luck... you can do this!

Hello everyone. I apologize for not posting sooner but my password wouldn't work. It was driving me crazy that I couldn't update everyone about my surgery.

I wanted to let everyone know that surgery went very well. No complications at all. I had a wonderful night nurse. I couldn't ask for a better nurse. My daytime nurse was awful. I only saw her about 2 times the whole day. I was beginning to think they had forgotten about me. I went into surgery a little earlier. It was suppose to be at 3:53 but they got me in there at 2:30. it took an hour and a half. I was walking around 10:00 that night. The daytime nurse wouldn't let me walk but the nighttime nurse got me walking. I was ready to go by that morning. But I got released at 7:00 that evening. While I was in the hospital, my blood pressure was amazing. I have never seen it that great before, even with 3 different BP medicines. They took me off all of them before I left. I have checked it since being home and it is still amazing. And my Blood sugar has never been so low. It runs in the 200-300 even with an insulin pump. While I was in the hospital, it ran around 120-130. I woke up this morning with a reading of 98. I am so excited.

Thanks for all the prayers and love.

I am so happy to hear that everything went so well! The news about your BP and blood sugar is fantastic! I want to do as well as you have when it's my turn! ????

Very happy for you???? speedy recovery

Speedy recovery.
