April 27th!!!!!!!!!!

Hi All, I got a date!!!! It is Friday April 27th!!! I couldn't be more excited. Well now I'm a little nervous too. Hey Rona, our Drs. do surgeries on different days so I might be getting out when you get there. I hope we get to meet. But for now I GOT A DATE!!!! Bye for now, Joni

Congrats.... I am so happy for you. I am still waiting for my date too.. Where are you having your surgery done?

Hi Kimberly, I am having my surgery in Traverse City, by Dr. Slikkers. They are wonderful and it is closest to my house. I hope you get your date soon. I know the waiting is a killer, but it will get here. Keep the faith, Joni

Congratulations Joni - April 27th is an awesome date! I had mine April 27th 2006. Anxiously awaiting to see where I'm at on my one year. The date will be here before you know it!!! sarah

Hey Sarah, That is awesome. Have you had any problems or complications since your surgery? I haven't posted any pictures but maybe I will next April 27th. Thanks for the good thoughts, Joni

oh Joni I am so excited for you ! thats terrific news ! a little jealous that your 3 days before mine, but thats okay LOL as much as I want to meet you, I hope your out by the 30th. I think if your in that long it might not be a good thing? keep me posted.... you'll be in my thoughts and prayers ! {{{{{{{{{HUGS}}}}}}}} ~~Rona

No complications - no problems - other than my tailbone area hurting when I sit. It seems I've lost most of my padding down there and something is poking into my muscle. Be aware that there may be more aches and pains down the road as your body adjusts to living without the excess weight. But for me it is well worth it and I wouldn't change a single thing. Feel free to ask more questions as the date gets closer! sarah
