I can't wait!

I can't wait to hear the details! Congratulations!

I was thinking the same thing about the green dress!! LOVE the sandals too!

That is so tacky! And to show a couple of her pictures from when she was skinny?? I would be pissed if I was her. Heck, I'm pissed and I'm not her!!

That's a great update! I can't wait to watch your transformation!

I'm really happy to hear that there are some who did not have vomiting. I have fought it at all costs for as long as I can remember and can't even remember the last time it happened to me. I'm a wimp. I'm getting pretty excited. I have my Lifestyles class at Richmond next Wednesday and then next Thursday I have my first appointment with Dr. Im. I have no idea how my progress on the pre-op diet is going. My husband has hijacked my scale and I have no clue where it is. So next Thursday will be a surprise to me. I wonder if they will have a scale at the Lifestyle class? Also, I am writing down everything I eat in my food journal, do they check it? Because today I didn't totally follow the pre-op plan, I went low carb today but still followed the diet minus the carbs. Am I going to get in trouble for that? I really liked it and might do it for a couple more days, to trick my body up. Tanya

Oh my! I'm so sorry! I was just teasing anyway. I hope everything is okay, I'm sending good thoughts your way. Please keep us posted. We worry.

I still haven't gotten my swimming invite. I'm thinking tonight would be perfect because you could also feed me lasagne!!

Is there anyone out there who didn't have vomitting after surgery? I REALLY hate it!!

I'm finding that everyone's experience is so vastly different it would be nearly impossible to give you a good estimate. For me it will probably be about 4 months from referral to surgery, for others a year or more.

Good luck with that!!

I'm happy you had 3 meals, but fainting? You poor thing! Why do you think that happened?

WOW! That sucks!

I'm starting my 14 week class at Kaiser Santa Rosa tonight, anyone else going to be there?
