Monika- You were right! By the time I read your post to my page, I was on the losing side! In 5 days, I have lost 6.6 pounds! Thank you so much for your encouraging words, I’m glad I’ve had such a smooth recovery so far! I am also glad I can go through this journey with cool people like you! Lynda P

Hi there!! Talked to my angelette today... She's at Scripps Hospital in room 928. (619 294 8111... call her and say Hi!!) She's feeling 'ok'... she says she's sore.. her chest hurts...BUT she's been up walking and has even done a post op aerobics class! (STUD!!)

Best Wishes for a successful surgery and smooth recovery! Weigh to go! I just read another post from someone who just had surgery and the thing that hurts the most is their BACK. And it is PAINFUL, not just uncomfortable. THE LAST THING YOU NEED TO TELL YOUR SURGEON, BEFORE THEY PUT YOU UNDER, IS TO PUT SOMETHING UNDER YOUR KNEES TO TAKE THE PRESSURE OFF YOUR BACK!!! Time and time again folks are coming out of the O.R. and their back is killing them. It’s because you are lying flat on your back for hours on a hard surface. How long can you do that now? If the surgeon will just put a rolled up blanket under your knees this problem will be eliminated! Got It?... Good…. Problem solved. (Or at least talk it over with him/her).

I wanted to wish you well with your upcoming surgery. I hope that all goes well and that you are up and out and about real soon. I'll bet you are are doing a happy dance accompanied by a bundle of unwanted "NERVES", but don't worry be HAPPY! You are in my thoughts and prayers. Good Luck!
