OMG, you are coming to the West Coast!!!! Woohoo! Is OCC in Mexico?? And....we are going to be only one day apart! That is so exciting!

Yes, I'm going to the West coast from the East coast. :frown: And yes, I'm going to go to the OCC which is in Mexico. I'm also supposed to be traveling the following week to LA to see my sister. So it will be another East coast to West coast trip the very next weekend. That worries me a little bit. I just don't know what to expect.

So yes, one day from yours! Are you getting ready? What are you doing to prepare? Love your glitter tag!

I don't know the time yet - I go in for my pre op on thursday, 19 Feb. I will have to spend the night in Tucson on the 15 of Mar - we live about 2 hours away. I am hoping for an early time - just so I don't miss my coffee so much! I hope I am one of those people who do well after surgery - I am a teacher and I having surgery the first day of my spring break - so I will have a whole week to get use to the band and get back on my feet.

Why is you surgery so late in the day?

I don't know why my surgery is so late in the day. It would be nice to get it over with early in the day.

I'm sure the hospital will charge me for a whole day instead of a half day... don't you think?

I'll be melting in March too! I'm thrilled to be finally approved by BC/BS of Florida. It was a looong process, but will be worth every minute of it. Surgery date is March 9th.

March 13 for me, Friday the 13th if I'm not mistaken. Almost exactly one year from seminar to surgery.

Ditto for me! How coincidental. I think we also have a group discussion going on in the groups section.

I am in, I am in!!!! WOO HOO!

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
