Date is July 9!  Talked to the scheduler today.  The only things left to do is pre-op testing and a 6 hour class with the nutritionist.

What I'm most excited about is that they don't do any 1 or 2 week liquid pre-op diet.  They do clear liquids the day before plus the "bowel prep" like GoLighty, etc.  Yay!

84 pounds to lose.  I can do this!  I already like to exercise....when I find time.  I just gained so much with my last baby (18 months ago) and can't get rid of it.  I was always thin my whole life so this is so frustrating.  This is a great tool to have to reach and maintain my goal weight.

Bikini...here I come!!!!  

Surgery weight:  232 lbs. / Goal: 145 lbs. Height:  5'5"     Fat? Ain't nobody got time for that.

Congrats!!!! I am almost 2 wks, post op, tomorrow. and doing pretty good so far. I see the surgeon tomorrow. The surgery itself was not bad at all. Was in hospital for 2 days, and came home on Tylenol. I have been walking everyday since. My best wishes to you, as I know it is not an easy decision!
