Hi David - Your surgery is schedule for 10/26 and that is just around the corner. I know it feels a lifetime away and like it is coming too fast all at the same time. Just relax and get your mind ready during these last couple of weeks. You'll go through a mountain of emotions, but they are all worth the looking at and pushing through. Dr O is a great surgeon and you'll do excellent. Soon you'll be on the losing side and wondering about this wild and crazy ride your on. But, I have found for me, even on days when I wonder if it will work for me, that I am so glad I did this.
I see where Dame Tooter signed you page. If you ever have questions, she is the wealth of information. Go to her profile page which you can get to by clicking on her name and then it will direct you to her website www.bariatricbytes.com to read all about vitamins, recipes, her story, WLS questions and results, etc. You can even sign up for her newsletter on the site.
Well, enough for now. Blessings to you!
