  1. Happy 55th Birthday gillingc!

  2. Gillingc, I am going to have my surgery 04-06-09 so I'm kinda nervous also. When are you having yours? Maybe we could lean on each other.

  3. Hi! As far as tips goes, the best advice I can give is research, research, research! Get a firm grip on the surgery itself, the eating habits you will have to embrace, and the lifestyle changes you will need to make. Now is the time to get a handle on all that stuff, not after surgery. Otherwise, rest assured that the surgery is minimally invasive (laparoscopic), has an extremely low mortality rate (as compared to gastric bypass), and is COMPLETELY reversible (should any complications arise). Rest easy, you'll do well if you do your homework now!
