Kris, I am so excited for you!!!! I hope everything goes super smooth tomorrow morning. Don't forget that you need your rest after surgery. With as busy a person you are, you might have problems with that. But you must take it easy and let your body heal. Hugs!!

Hello! Just an update... and it really is from me! I am enjoying the sunny weather and I have made it through all my preop testing. I thoroughly like the doctor, he was patient, not condescending, not judgemental or anything... my experience with him has been the best of any doc I have met so far (Bariatric surgeon). That's probably a good thing, since he will be doing my surgery at 7:30am tomorrow morning! (Barring any earthquakes or phone calls!). As far as preop testing goes... the Upper GI was the hardest... which says a lot since I have a phobia of needles and it took a couple tries to get the blood test and then I also had to have a blood gas. I would go through either one of those again, if I could skip another upper GI! <p> Anyway... just wanted to say thanks to all those who have supported and encouraged me through all my ups and downs (and surgery cancellation)... I have the "green" light for tomorrow... everything has been done and reviewed! I have to be at the hospital at 5:15am! [groan]. Hugs to all!

***********ANGEL REPORTING********* Well, our girl is in California preparing for her exciting journey into the "Loser's World". Kris, thank you for giving me a little more time to lose weight before you embark on your own weight loss, but I'm afraid after the first month you will surpass me and be looking and feeling wonderful!!! I know you will do fantastic. Everyone, please post to Kris with well wishes. She has been there for many in the past and she continues to support so many. Let's tell her how much her blessings have encouraged us by responding in kind during her moments. God Bless, Kris, and talk to you later. ((((Hugs))))
