lellow 1,713 Posted March 18, 2009 Excellent news Juli (well except the paying part! Lol!) My surgeon said I could start exercising slowly from 2 weeks post op too, building up to my normal regime by 6 weeks post op. And yeah, no more crunches for me ever again, he reckons! Not long now for us! I'm super excited! I keep wobbling my jelly belly and saying to my DH, you better take one long last look, it's going to be gone soon!

OH Juli 15 Posted March 18, 2009 I'll be happy to have my belly G O N E forever. He said I'll be tiny. I'm going to go to sleep with those words in my head. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mrgrta 0 Posted March 18, 2009 Juli, I'm getting so excited for you! I think I would have died if my doctor said the word "tiny". You must be thrilled. Me, I'm getting excited, but nervous more than anything. Keep us updated. Cathy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OH Juli 15 Posted March 26, 2009 Well I'm 10 days away from surgery. Today I finish my last assignment for school. I present with my team on line this evening. I started back for my undergraduate degree in 2005 and continued on to get my MBA. It's nearly, just hours away, completed!!!! Then I fly to Las Vegas tomorrow morning for a long weekend to Celebrate. I'll work a week, get my scrips filled, buy pillows, clean the house etc. then have surgery. SURGERY!!! I'm so stoked. I'm not scared yet. I suppose that will come in time. Woot!!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lellow 1,713 Posted March 31, 2009 Juli, Today is my last day at work, and tomorrow I'm packing my hospital bags and cooking up some meals to freeze for DH and my sons. Thursday, as you know, I'll be going in for surgery (and coz I'm in Australia, it'll still be Wed night for you when they start working on me!) If I don't get to speak to you again between now and when your turn comes, please know I'll be thinking of you on the 6th of April, and sending lots of good wishes your way. Good luck, matey! You're going to look absolutely WONDERFUL! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
