That's who my surgeon is going to be. I have cancelled two times due to fears and other issues. Rescheduled for Sept now. So he's good huh? This needs to be one less of my worries?

I m scheduled Sept 20th. I have been scheduled twice before. First time I chickened out. Second time my orthopedic rehab Dr told me not to do it because of my pain issues I was working on. I rescheduled again. Weigh more now than before. Not sure how I will deal with the food issues but I need to do this. Need a healthier perspective on food portions and how to eat slower. Would love to be buddies.

Thank you for the information.

I am Scheduled Sept 20th. I also have thin hair. Worried about being bald in the front of my head after surgery and hair loss.

I agree with you. It's my vice. I am home all the time since car accident left me unable to work. Quit smoking 12 years ago. My boredom and bad focus daily leaves me in a bad place to where I am now.

I am scheduled for Sept 20th at West Penn Pittsburgh Pa. I pushed it out till summer was over. Was offered July but will be away and moving son to college Aug. Anyways no one else scheduled Sept yet?

Anyone in Pgh for surgery this fall coming? I am scheduled Sept 20.

I am scheduled Sept 20. I scheduled far out cause of few things going on. My third time approved and first time I chickened out. Second my ortho rehab Dr didn't want me to do this. This time I just have to. I am so uncomfortable and scared for me. But scared and doubting my own capabilities. I so focus on food now.

I was always called my dads chubby little girl. Then when my mom was dying couple years ago in her medicated state made a remark about the thousands of pounds I need to lose. That was it for me. My mo Always defended me to my dad and would yell at him. I am 205lbs and 5"2. I am done with it all. My husband isn't happy I am doing this but it's for me. No one else. I have always tried to please everyone. My turn.. Do what u need to do for u. No one else will .
