YAY!!! :thumbup: I was laughing as I read about you watching food network...I did too!! :001_tt2: My Dad thought I was crazy, but it actually helped. -

Good for you! I'm sure that you will do great. Make sure to keep us updated. :001_tt2: -
KabinKitty, I know what you mean about stressing before a physical! I used to hate going to my annual physical at work b/c I would get the "talk" about my cholesterol, BP, weight, etc, etc, etc! BARF!! I'm a Nurse, for goodness sakes...I KNOW it's not healthy to be overweight. It just kills me that people think that b/c someone is overweight they can say ANYTHING to them. WHAT??? Not. Here's hoping that you get to join the losers' bench really soon! It is such a liberating thing to not have to be tied down to my mask at bedtime. My Husband loves that I don't snore anymore too.

Just wanted to give you a big "atta girl". That's so amazing to make so much change in just 2 months isn't it? I can't believe have far I've come in the short time since my sleeve either. I can totally relate to feeling like you have a new lease on life! :lol0:

Exactly! It's nice to know that my thirties will be spent "healthy" and not focusing on health probs. :lol0:

WTG! Keep us posted on your progress. Welcome to the Losers Bench! BTW, my stomach made all kinds of noises the first couple of days. It always helped me to walk (I think mine was mainly gas, but it was embarrassing anyway). LOL! :lol0: -
My lifelong battle with weight

Ditto! I'm very interested and could so relate to a lot of it. :thumbup1: -
I did It !!!! I did it !!!!!
Shadowwolf549 replied to Thinmint's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I totally agree! The pain pump was fab! I rarely had to use any of the liquid pain meds (mostly when we were headed home...it was a long flight back to NC). I totally should have sprang for first class. That would have been great! :thumbup1: I :001_wub: Dr. Umbach and his staff! They are the best!:001_tt1: -
Leaving in 2 days....
Shadowwolf549 replied to momof3girls's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
July 2nd is a great day for surgery...it's my birthday. :thumbup: I'm sure you will do fine, but I totally understand your anxiety. I had my surgery in Las Vegas (from NC) so when I was leaving home I just kept thinking about my kids at home and all the what ifs. But like you, I kept my focus on the positive changes that the surgery was going to bring into our lives and the better example I would be setting for the kids. I want to be a good example and show them that our family hx of obesity isn't a given and that we CAN do things to help ourselves. :thumbup: Your girls are lucky to have a great Mommy and you will be an even better version of yourself after surgery. :laugh0: -
I can't believe I HAVE A SURGERY DATE!
Shadowwolf549 replied to LapGyrl's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story

Dr. Umbach in Las Vegas?
