If you are scheduled for surgery in March, start sharing those dates. Make some friends with people who are having surgery on the same day

And a Happy Future for all of YOU! Take a deep breath, smile, because all the preparations will now bear fruit. And you can do this next stage also, have faith in you, face tomorrow without sorrow!??

Just about 12 hours until surgery. Check in at 5:30, surgery about 7:30. Hope I can get some sleep!

Good luck to other 3/11 buddies and those following right behind us!

Almost forgot to say I took my before pics this morning! Looking forward to posting after pics in the coming months!

How exciting! Best of luck!

Good luck! Waiting to be rolled back in an hour.

3 Days postop from bypass and feeling good. Got up this morning started a load of laundry and made my son and granddaughter breakfast. I am still going to take it easy throughout the day but feel like I could do more.

Day 1 of pre-op diet. Two weeks of Optifast with 7 servings a day. The little juice box shake wasn't terrible, but I wouldn't prefer it. I'll be glad when the surgery is done.

Day 3 post op for me. Everything has been going so welll until this morning. I think I drank my breakfast too fast and started vomiting, mostly foam. I also have this terrible sharp pain in my lower back.

called the doctor and took some pain meds, starting to feel a bit better. Hopefully the dr calls me soon, I just need reassurance that I’m ok.

hope everyone else is doing ok!

PMP ?

March 7 for me RNY

I got mine done on the 8th also, everything went well. I wanted to let ppl know where I went, because they were great. I went to Pompeii Surgical in Mexico. My insurance would pay. My cost was $4800 however, they do in house financing. I had to put down 2k, & they are financing balance for 1 year I’m only paying $546 in interest over the course of the loan. They recorded by procedure on a thumb drive & gave it to me. They picked me up at the airport & 2 hospital days & 1 hotel day. Brought me to the airport this AM. My Surgeon came to see me 4 times & they did 2 leak tests.
