Hello everyone, hope you had a great Christmas and a Happy New Year. Finally got my surgery date, was hoping for 2013, but . . . . :( So I go in January 27, meet for pre-op on January 13th. I’m sure I’ll start my “liver shrieking diet” then. The weekend of 11-12 will be last real meals for a...

I know they will want you to move to keep from getting blood clots. So I can see walking the dog, easy house cleaning, but I agree any heavy lifting I’d not do. Good Luck… Do you have your tree up? I can see getting that done. But go shopping, walk, get out!

No your are not been selfish...but remember too, you will be making new memories when you are both post surgery. Thanksgiving isn't going to change, just what you eat will change. Remember what Thanksgiving and Christmas really means. You'll be able to enjoy the holidays without food being...

GOOD LUCK, StinkerBelle! Get on as quick as you can and tell us all about it. I'll be coming to Disney next November to bring my Grandson. Enjoy those fireworks! R

WELCOME WELECOME. I feel the same way. The one thing I’ve learned from this forum, REMEMBER THE SURGERY IS A TOOL! So just keep that in mind and you should do fine. I don’t’ have a surgery date yet either, I started this journey in July. And what did it for me is posting some photos of me...

Keep on track. That is the main reason I have not told many people I am doing the surgery, Don't want to hear their mouths LOL. Just keep up the good work, get positive feedback from here and the people who really support you! :)

WOW. This is a good idea. Put that on my shopping list. :)

sounds yummy! :) thanks for sharing

This has been the best place for me to get my 10 people... Good Luck. Everyone here has been very helpful.

That is good news about your daughter. Part of me hopes my Hubby will decide to do the surgery. He doesn't have the medical issues I have, but he's still very overweight. And not to get to personal, but I hope getting the weight off, helps me enjoy my personal time with him :o ;) Rhonda

Thanks. All this positive feedback is really making me more excited to get this weight off. :) Like Okieatheart, I want a lap to hold the grandbabies LOL I want to take them to park and we able to play, I travel, so I want to not have to ask for the extra seatbelt on the plane, HOW...

You are so right, it's been family first. Good luck with your surgery, look forward to hearing good reports from you. Thanks, Rhonda

Thank you for the reply. I need to hear everything. :D

Thanks for the reply. Wow loose too much weight that would be a dream LOL I am really getting excited about this... just these small changes I’ve already made I've dropped 10 lbs. since Sept. I am still deciding who I tell and who I don't. Especially work people. I work with some...

Insurance SUCKS LOL I am still going through all the hoops. 1 more month with my Bariatric Doctor then I have to wait to hear from the Insurance Company. I was all set to have my surgery in December, and they told me it could be up to a month before they hear from insurance company. So I...

That is wonderful to hear. I plan to have surgery in Dec or Jan. Then we are planning a trip to Disney World in the fall with our Grandson. So it's good to hear that you were able to enjoy the vacation even after surgery.

Thanks for your replies. I've only told a few close friends and immediate family. So trying to come up with 10 people who's had the surgery to talk to is hard. I don't wont to put my plans on Facebook and work (other than the boss) doesn't know. So any replies are much appreciated.

Good luck to you both. I am still going through all the "hoops". I really hope to have my surgery in Dec, Jan at the latest. Let us know how everything goes for you.

Hello everyone .. I’m new to the site. I am planning on have the sleeve gastrectomy in Dec. Still going through all the “pre surgery hoops”. I am married with 3 grown boys, (25, 20 & 18) and grandson (3). So I am so ready for this surgery so I can keep up with the grandson and hopefully...
