I Changed My Mind!!

[pattigirl 0]

My surgery was scheduled for June 30. I changed my mind 3 days ago. I am 56 yrs. old and my dr. sent me for all kinds of tests.Stress test, blood work-up. I've had 3 blood clots in one of my legs. The hemotologist warned me that I probably develope another one after surgery. That was enough to change my mind.

Now, I am determined to loose weight on my own! I joined Weight Watchers, which, by the way, I've had luck with in the past. I am joining a gym.

Good luck to everyone. And to myself!

Walking after surgery will help ward off blood clots. They can also insert a "screen" to stop a clot from traveling. I would discuss it with your surgeon before making a definite decision. Good luck with whatever you decide!

Good Health to You ! I lost 125 lbs. by just eating 1200 calories a day. Every Day...

I had a 12 month pre op diet, and that's what I lost.

So Good Luck to you, with what you do.

You know your always welcome here.
