Sher' CONGRATS TO YOU!!!!! And indeed, a MERRY CHRISTMAS. Couldn't ask Santa for anything better than THAT, could you? Does this make you Dr. T's first surgery at HH? Or do you know of anyone going before you? Not that it matters, just curious! Who hoo for you, my dear! You're on your way now! Let me dust off this spot on the bench for you....we'll keep it warm while you're waiting... Lisa

Hi Lisa! Thanks so much >>>HUGS I am going to be one of the first if not THE first! Well...somebody has to get the ball rolling! Makes me kind of nervous..but safe too..cause ALL EYES are gonna be on us "test cases"...and you know this thing is going to take off like wildfire...went to the support group last night and the room is packed. I am confident in him and my PCP reccomended him..and my PCP is very conservative about surgery...(I mean he IS an internist)...LOL>>> Thanks for saving me a seat!!! I apprecaite greatly your kindness and support! Merry Christmas! Sher'

I think it's kinda cool to be one of his first here. It's not like you're one of his first EVER. The mans got a lot of experience...so no issues there. I really think you're in great hands. You're right- all eyes WILL be on you! I think that's great. A little intimidating...but great LOL. What a Merry Merry surprise! Lisa

Morning Lisa, A little intimidating is RIGHT!!! LOL......I'm excited..I am so thrilled to be able to get a tool to finally help me with this weight..I know I am not alone here..but OH how I have suffered because of being overweight..let me count the ways! I don't know which is worse..the physical or the emotional...the self loathing...and always feeling as though I had to be "on" and compensate twice as much around other people to get them to look past my weight...(resenting it all the while I might add). Now that I knw I am escaping, I can really let down my defenses! I am going to go to Dakota's or Outback and have one last steak dinner before surgery, and then I am ready. I LOVE mashed taters...so that won't bug me... I think Tishler is a good surgeon...he just looks so YOUNG!!! But then..a lot of people are looking "young" to me lately...LOL...you look prety young yourself! Thanks for all the good posts and well wishes Lisa. you are a sweety! A Most BLessed Holiday to You and Yours! Sher'
