Kaiser Richmond Pre-op

Do any of you remember my friend Bonnie? She'll be at the meeting tomorrow night and can give you an update. She'll be stopping by my room on the way to the meeting. I hope I'll be up walking so I can give John a hard time! :biggrin:

My surgery fee is $100, but it's $500 because I'm being admitted. That's a lot of boots! But then again, without the surgery I'd be spending it on doctor bills. Well worth every penny!

Hello hello!

I feel like all sorts of terribleness today. I've been sore for the last five days (which is great, actually) but this cold is threatening. My asthma only bothers me when I'm sick, and it sucks!

I got to go visit Coco today! I hope you liked your Soup, lady!

I'm planning on going to bed early tonight. (For me that's any time in the 10:00 hour) We'll see how that goes. Luckily today is my rest day so no gym for me.

Mo I hear ya.....this was the 1st V day I didn't have chocolate. It would have been all bad for me too. I feel like a junkie and it's calling me. I only have 2 weeks till my appt so I need to focus.

John, they had me come in at 6 too. They checked me in right away there was a lady already behind the desk. Then Candra showed up and I really only got to hang in the waiting room for 25-30 mins then they took me back. And yeah they didnt call my mom in until like 10 mins before I walked into the O.R. so yeah thats how it went for me. YAY Go Get Em!!

Heather just wanted to say thanks for coming to visit me it was nice and btw your Soup was BOMB Robbie tasted it (which turned into 1/2 the soup) hahahah and he wants the receipe!! It was great! Thank you so much!! We really need to do that more often.

Jes I hear you about being a junkie, I find that is my new M.O. LOL. The good thing is I only ate 2 dark Rochers durng valentines and I counted that as my carb for the day. Continue to stay focused, send some of that good vibe my way!

[Lee 19]

I remember Bonnie - I'll be sure to get the update and post if that's ok.

Candra, I'd love it if you'd do that! She'll also know if I'm up for visitors or too Zombie'd out!

Thank you all for being so kind and generous with your well wishes.

Good luck the the new people up tomorrow. I will be waiting to see how the sleeve works out. I am still interested although I would have to convince my doctor which is NOT an option right now.

Pam:

I don't think I am gonna get a fill with them. I am gonna wait it out for now with Kaiser. But you are so right I do need to know about unfills. Great Point!! I don't want to be higher than 5cc's. Once I get there I only want to get a fill if I lose. I just want enough to have some restriction 5cc's has been a good number. 5.5 and 6 is where I had problems.

Ok who gave me the cold. I have had a Migraine for days and sinus pressure. I know I am getting an sinus infection and trying to think how to stop it. I slept with an ice pack last night!!! LOL. didn't work that well so maybe heat tonight..........I don't want to be sick.

I am wondering about the Netti Pot anyone try that....I am sorta curious cause I get sinus infections alot and the headaches are killer with them.....

Well I gotta get some sleep early day tomorrow.......we are busy this month and I hope that means job security!! LOL!! That is what I am telling myself!! I hope everyone is doing well!!

Oh I won't be at the the meeting this month. I have to be a stewarts training for work that day from 8-2:30pm. We need a another support group cause this once a month makes it hard. I always miss all the good stuff!!

This is for some leadership committee that I am on.

[swrktp 1]

I sorta met someone or re met someone from my past and that has me distracted right now...........a best friend from a few years ago. He knows all about the band and the whole thing so it has been good. I don't know why I told him cause I don't tell people but we have always been good friends and I usually tell him everything anyway.

So between him and my daughter.........

Not sure if this is a long term thing cause I don't like long term to much!! :-) I am flighty.............but nice to have someone who knows what is going on and thinks it is not a huge big deal!!

So anyway I am distracted with work and social life right now.

Think of me on the 23 of this month cause that is D day. If I make it past that........than I am good until July and that means a few more months of Kaiser and fills.

Navato is my back up plan but not my plan A. I want something in SAcramento or my uncle to get lap band certified!! Other than that I am gonna have to chill with no restriction.

JES

Good grief that is my nightmare!!! How did you dream that. LOL. That i
