After having my bypass surgery postponed twice, it's finally going to happen on ELECTION DAY Nov. 8, 2016! The USA may be getting a new president that day, but I am getting a new lease on life and I am so thankful.

Today is day 9 on my liver shrink diet and so far, I've done well. I am pleased with the weight that I've lost so far these past few days.

It's been a long road since June with numerous blood tests, x-rays, ct scans, pet scans, and biopsies, to get me well today and I thank the Lord for this.

I intend to do all that I can to be as successful as I can possibly be. I just wanted to share my happy news with you, and thank you all for your encouragement to not give up!

Hi Debi, Congratulations. I know you will do great. I will be following you closely because you are one week and one day before my surgery.

I also wanted you to know I was born & raised in Pascagoula and You were born exactly one day before me!!!

@@BariatricGal thanks, I am super excited and I know that you're going to do well too.

We got this!!!!!

Congrats! I find out Nov. 10th when mine is..
