Recommended Posts

I'm using a Light Me too. If you look at their website you will see pics of a new hospital then pics of Cornerstone. They are using the new one. I notice that they had added to new pics so I e-mail Janese. I still need to contact Maria.

The time is going to go by so slow' date=' sorry you still have a month to go. I booked the first part of August and time has started to stand still... [/quote']

@ NWLA which website did you go to? Do you know the name of the new hospital? When I booked a cpl weeks ago Janese td me they were using cornerstone. Wonder if I can change where it's being done?

Alighterme.com, I also e-mailed her. Here's her answer, "We recently (like maybe 2 weeks ago) moved to this hospital, its beautiful from what I have been told by Dr Lopez."

I guess when you are leaving the hospital, I will be checking in. I'm flying United, the flight times were better.

So I am 95% sure I'm going with dr. Ponce de leon. I am planning my sleeving for 3/11/13. I want to try and drop 30-50 lbs 1st. Excited and anxious!! My mom has changed her mind and plans to accompany me. She still isn't a believer but she doesn't want me alone.

I am a full time student among full time everything else. I will be on Spring Break then. I cannot afford to miss school... Especially since I have to pay for it! Lol!

Don't you think you will need more time off than a week?

Idk. I will play it by ear. Fortunately I have a desk job. I was able to return to work a week after laproscopic gall bladder surgery...

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
