16 Days Post Op Today - 1St Post!

[ZombiePiper 11]

Hi,

I'm 16 days post op and this is my first post here. You can call me piper I'm scootish

I've lurked the forums here pre op looking for answers to questions but I've nenver posted, I'm kind of shy like that I recon. I live in Oregon but I'm from California originally. I wish I had the guts to sit in front of a web cam and pour my heart like so many people I've watched over the last two years on youtube but I think I'm to private of a person (and a big chicken too!). Sadly for myself, I give those people a big Huzzah because they've helped me so much in decision making process of what was the best course of action.

I lost a total of 108 Pre-op because I fired my first surgeon after I lost his required 60 lbs. Believe me, I made the right decision. He quit the practice 6 weeks later and I ended with a most amazing surgon (see my profile) and I couldn't be happier with everything she's done from A to Z. She required me to loose 40 lbs but I passed my mark a bit. I had some minor complications with my surgery, I had a Hiatal hernia fixed which is a common occurrence from what I understand and they found a tumor in my stomach. The tumor tested "low risk" with a very low probability of cancer. I'm glad I dodged that bullet!

I DID IT!

Welcome, you Scottish, Californian who uses the words "recon" and "Huzzah" all in one post!

Congrats on the pre-surgery loss and good luck, moving forward!

I grew up just north of you about 30 miles, I spent a lot of time in my youth running around RIverside. That VST addiction wouldn't have anything to do with a company called Stienberg would it?
