Well, it’s official! You’re on the losing side. The trumpets are blaring, the cymbals are crashing and the drums are drumming – all for YOU! I hope that all went well for you! You’ve been out of surgery now for a little over a month – YIPPIE!!! Your journey will have moments to “pause” – I’d like to impart some words of wisdom for when it does occur - remember these wise words whispered by Confucius – “It does not matter how slowly you go so long as you do not stop.” Be patient. You didn’t put it on over night, it won’t come off over night (DARN IT!)…Don’t forget to update your profile at least monthly and take lots of pictures…the transformations will make your jaw drop!!! RNY 10/31/03 – down 90 pounds!!! Good luck!

YaShoney, I would simply ask Dr Wood or his staff for an additional 2 weeks off, if your not ready to go back to work, you must not be feeling up to par. I had some complications with my surgery and I was off about 9 weeks all together. shannon hiler :)

Hi, YaShoney! It's a GREAT time to grab a new life here in Da Mitten, my fellow Michigander! Hurry up 'n c'mon back to us! We're gathering quite a group of Marchers here in Newpouch, and we're awaiting your arrival -- I've got the dancing penguins ready! I'll be praying that it goes as well for you as it did for all of us that have gone ahead of you! Godspeed!!!

Hi YaShoney, I'd say don't be nervous but, heck I was. Of course it was for nothing (except I burned a few more calories) because my surgery went just fine. I had soreness afterwards and frankly, my back hurt worse than my incision. For me, the week before surgery was worse than the week after. Remember to keep it positive. That includes keeping only positive people around because before surgery we are so sensitive to every comment people make. It will be just fine. I hope all your health and weight loss dreams come true,
