Beni 1,484 Posted September 18, 2014 Hurray, so glad to get news from you and that you are doing well. I am going to get a surgery date today. I am expecting late October but we'll see. You will be about one month ahead of me and we both are 5' 5" and have a goal weight of 150. Team NOVA is well on it's way! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joy59 81 Posted September 18, 2014 Much better to have it done and be on the road to recovery even without the daVinci I will not be disappointed if it ends up that they cannot use the davinci as long as it gets done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Beni 1,484 Posted September 20, 2014 How are you doing 4mickeymoose? 33 lbs is impressive. How is your recovery going? Any advice? My bypass is October 28th and there are 3 other girls I follow with October dates. We are all trying to ready ourselves for the big moment. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DaronB 103 Posted September 21, 2014 I'm scheduled for October 31 robotically! Good luck, Beni! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Beni 1,484 Posted September 21, 2014 Hurray for you DaronB! My surgery in on October 28th. I hope to be home by the 31st. I do think it is wonderful to have it on Halloween because you can Celebrate your new beginning every year. Good luck to you too, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pjhoyt 14 Posted September 23, 2014 Mine was in July '14 and was DaVinvci robotic, 6 little 1" incisions (scars). Recovery is do much easier with robotic surgery ???? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
auntjanny 289 Posted September 26, 2014 I just had da Vinci robotic for the sleeve on Monday, and had a da Vinci robotic for a total hysterectomy. I think the positives override negatives by quite a ways! Good luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
