Thanks!

Thank you! How have your first four months been?

I can now say I'm very happy I had the surgery. But it was rougher than I anticipated. I'd had the lap band previously and had to have it removed. So I was familiar with weight loss surgery.

But recovery was hard. I think the biggest thing for me was, I didn't realize it'd be such a challenge to just eat and drink! (a new challenge with food for sure!) I was nauseous SO much. I was dehydrated too, just Miserable....but each month it's gotten better and things are going a lot smoother now.

March 23rd here!! good luck to you!!

Same to you Laura!

Congrats on your date! Mine is March 12th. I feel like the days are dragging! I just try to keep busy and not to obsess about it because it's like torturing myself. Best wishes to you!

Day 2 post surgery. All is good, hopefully home this afternoon. No pain in abdomen but gas pains are there. Walking the halls trying to get it absorbed.
