Hi everyone, Where are the support groups in New York? Thanks
-
I had surgery a week ago and since then, I have had frequent bolt of pain under my breast. It feels like a bolt of electricity in my stomach area that leaves me crying out loud in pain. Had anyone experience this? How long does it last?

Well I am heading to Mexico, this morning (its 1:15 am). Please pray for me. I look at my three year old son and wonder if I am doing the right thing. What if something goes wrong in Mexico and my son is left without a mother? Is this just my vanity? I have struggled with a weight issue all my life, God knows I tried everything to lose the weight and keep it off. Thanks for the great support

Thank you all for your kind words, it is much appreciated. My surgery went well. I was up and walking within hours. I really recommend Dr. Ortiz and his team. The hospital exceed any I have been to in the US and the hotel was great. I am so bloated and I am still in pain but it is bearable. Thanks again

Hi fellow bandmates, my surgery is scheduled for October 5th . I am excited and nervous at the same time. I was able to watch a lapband surgery "live" that really educated me on what to except in the operating room. Hopefully it helps you too.

I am worried that I am going to need more time to recover than I thought. I only have a week vacation which leaves me with only have 4 days to recover. How much time did it take to recover? Thanks for the support
-
Thanks everyone!!! I feel so much better. Based on your responses, I think I'll be ok with the 4 vacation days. As princess stated, I would have to let my job knows why I am taking FMLA which is unpaid. I am not ready for anyone at my job to know my plans and I need to get paid!!.
