Date tentatively set for Jun-3 2009, pending final pre-op testing. Hope I don't come down with the swine flu in the meantime
Thanks to the kind words from visitors to my blog. I have had company for a few weeks and need to catch up with my "correspondence" on this wonderful site.
Keep up the good work, Bandsters!
I can't **count** how many people have come up to me and had the GALL to say, "You know who you look *exactly* like?!" [i grit my teeth, 'cause I know what's coming ... wait for it ...] "Kathy Bates!!!"
I say tersley, "Well, she's a great American actress, so I'll take that as a compliment.":sneaky:
If you can't say "You look just like Nicole Kidman" - then keep your thoughts to yourself!
Thank goodness this six-month wait is going to be over - really gets long between four and six.
Got all my paperwork together, hopefully it's full steam ahead :thumbdown:
Great site - lots of inspiration here!
I'm also looking for others who were born with congenital hip disorder. It's been a long downward spiral - lots of extra weight on a bad hip and back, very painful. Expecting to get banded in Apr 09.
Starting BMI 45.3
