Hi everyone,

I'm 29, married, living in Seattle, Washington, am mom to two children (4yrs & 9mos), and am currently staying at home to care for them. Oh, and no pets right now... aside from my daughter's sea monkeys and a few lingering under-the-bed dust bunnies.

My surgery is schedule for 4/17 @ NWWLS in Everett, WA with Dr. Michaelson. So ready for this next chapter to begin!

Great idea!!!

I'm Jamie, live in Omaha, Nebraska. I am married 5 years and have an 18 month old daughter, Ayla. Before I became a mommy I worked as a Hospice nurse(RN) and LOVED my job. My BMI is 40 and I will be having surgery on the 23rd...just 4 days away!!! Oh, I also have 2 dogs, Boston and Gracie and a cat - Blue.

I see there are several people on here who have just had thier surgery. I had my surgery on April 17 with Dr. Cywes. I live in Jacksonville, FL and have two children, 7 and 2.

I was wondering how everyone is feeling now that they are at home. I am so tired and was wondering if anyone else just feels totally drained? I just want to know what everyone else is feeling. Yesterday I was so sick to my stomach it was crazy, cold sweats and all. Thank the Lord I didnt vomit! I am really scared of that. Maybe I am just looking for comfort to know that what I am feeling is normal. Thanks yall, hope eveyone if recovering well!
