I'm new also!
Hi, <br />
My name is Debbie, I just turned 57 2 days ago. I have 100 lbs to lose. Have arthritis in my back. Have had back surgery, nothing seems to help. I know once I take off some weight it will be easier. I'm nervous, scared and excited all at once. I live in California and having my Rny bypass done in Las Vegas on 8/15. I'm so not looking forward to the airplane ride home 2 days after surgery and then the hour and a half drive home...I'm so glad I found this web site and the young at heart group.

Hello Debbie and welcome to the Over Fifty Forum of OH, lovingly referred to as the OFF board. . . You will be amazed at how you will feel less 100 lbs.
If possible travel with a pillow and put it between you and your seat belt, as it will help you.
Best wishes, Laureen

Welcome Debbie,
Im Carla and Welcome to the looers bench. I live across the us in florida. Moved here from Denver colorado. I am going again in August for Surgery again for a hernia. Im with you about the flying thing. I am staying a while after my surgery to jeel for a bit. My dr wont let me fly for 2 weeks after my surgery. So Ill have to stay there. I wanted to drive there again but 1900 miles driving again will put me over the edge. I did it in May without ac in my car and it about turned the bank account over the edge!!!!!.
You will loose the 100 pounds in no time. Carla

hi I didnt know I had the hernia before I left home. I went to colorado cause it was hot here and I wanted to spend some time with my gal pals in colorado. What happened was I was driving in Georgia and this stupid truck with an open bed was hauling rocks or something and a rock hit my windshield and then hit my grill and all of a sudden I had no air. I was like 600 miles from home above atlanta. If i would of been like 100 miles from home I would have turned around and went and got my husbands car and call it a day and told him to take care of it!!!!!
I went to see my surgeon when I got to denver. and told him I had this pain. He did a ultrasound and low and behold there it was!!!!! When I decided to do the surgery he was on vacation.....Carl came to Denver and I told him I had a hernia and he said well you have to wait. I said well we can come back after we go to Chicago and he told me no!!!!! So I said well then Ill just go back in august!!!! So I am!!!!! Carla
