Wow! This is bound to be difficult on both you and Mr. Yoda. I hope she makes a good recovery. My thoughts are with you both.

Awwe, give Mr. Yoda a big hug from me, and hug yourself too.....(?). Sorry that didnt make alot of sense. Hopefully now she's on blood thinners, she'll be good. Stressful for you and Mr. Yoda, though, especially when there's a distance. Thats gotta suck. Will you be going back down to visit? Take care, give yourself a break!

Sorry for your troubles Yoda. My dtr in law had a blood clot in her lung after she was on bedrest with the twins. she too was on blood thinners for 6 months. it is a very scary and dangerous situation. I'm glad that it was caught in time for your mom in law. Sounds like the docs are taking good care of your mominlaw.

Thanks guys; appreciate the good thoughts.

Cloe: you made Mr Yoda's day....all he can say now is, "Cloe hugged me"....and does a lil' dance! It really doesn't take much to please him, does it?!!! He says it is because he is "starved for affection" WHATEVER!!!!!!! I don't THINK SO!!!!! (he will be NOW!).

Hugs to Mr Yoda and Mr Yoda's mom and you!

Thanks Cloe....I have a doc. appt with the specialist (endocrinologist) tomorrow...he is the one who really went to bat for me and recommended me for the surgery etc.....(long story) and he put his reputation on the line for me (& a few others).....so I reallllllllllllllllllllllly wanted to be able to sincerely tell him that I've lost SIXTY pounds (just sounds better than saying 59!)....and now I will be able to do just that!! It's important to me that he see that what he did was a good thing and NOT all for nothing!!! So I am excited to see him tomorrow and tell him.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
