  1. I am sure it is frustrating but like investment returns, consider the long term results

    Glad to hear it and anxious for details as I am a week away

    Be careful. Remember your insides were cut and have to heal.
  5. I have a friend who did so last year but I was wondering, and haven't talked to her to ask, how do you get back to your doctor for followups and contact for questions and issues????
  6. I am on the pre op diet and I put my bottled shake in my Bullit with ice and blend it, you can put your vitamins in that and blend as well.
  7. It says it's loading but just cycles and then stops

    Welcome. I am on the 26th. I am getting anxious too. I had lost a lot of wt after my first husband was killed in 2003 so in 2005 I had a full tummy tuck and muscle repair with lipo. The Bypass surgeon told me this would be a pc of cake compared to that, so I just keep reminding myself of that. BTW, the wt didnt come back there either!!

    Patti have you ever had a colonoscopy? If not I can tell you that it is not likely that you will be able to work after you start your prep!!!
  11. What was the reason YOU chose bypass instead of sleeve? For me, Tricare will not pay for the sleeve.

    Someone here, I think zoefruitcake, is going the 19th and me the 26th. My cousin had the sleeve in Sept and told me that for the first 2 days I will regret it but after that it is downhill.

    Zoefruitcake, is your surgery on the 26th? Mine is at 9:30 that day and I have to be ther at 7:30. I live far from the hospital so am spending the night at a hotel. I feel like you do.. "Am I REALLY doing this?"
  19. For us newbies, it ould really help us if you who have already had surgery, could keep your stats updated. Thank you!!!
