My surgery is on FAT Tuesday 2/8

HI everyone, Well I guess I won't be wearing any beads that day. I just found out that I'm book on the best day of them all during Mardi Gras. I think that is too funny. Because I love New Orleans. When you think about it, I'm book on the coolest day of the year in New Orleans. So when you think about it That day while they are throwing there beads, eating King Cakes, drinking , and watching the parades. I will be chancing my life forever in a very health, happy way.

Hey Maria! I didn't know all that about Mardi Gras But my surgery day is the same day! It has got to be a GREAT day ! The first day of the rest of our lives! Good luck Maria!

Hello there Paige You are so right. That is going to be the first day of the rest of our lives. May God bless and keep you safe. May you have a speedy heal time. Tuesday is going to be the best days of our lives. clap:

Cool date! It's Shrove Tuesday, when people at our church pig out on pancakes. You could try flashing people at the hospital and see if you get some beads. Good luck with everything, Maria! Jeanie

Oh man can you image! I can see the headlines now. Crazy fat lady flashing her boobs whom just got out of surgery for gastric bypass runs around hospital floor in hopes of getting beads!!! Film at 11.. Thank you Jeanie for the laugh and the luck. God Bless!

Maria, My surgery was originally scheduled for Mon. 2/7 in New Orleans. I would be going home on Tues 2/8. Can you imagine getting out of that traffic, I live about 60 miles from New Orleans. I had my surgery changed to 2/14. I know... it's Valentine's Day but it much better than Mardi Gras. Good Luck on 2/8 Dee

I'm glad I'm not the only one *****lized it was FAT Tuesday. Just think you won't be FAT after Tuesday . You will be in my thoughts and prayers for an uneventful surgery and a speedy recovery . Esther Lap - RNY 02/11/05 Dr. Wilcox, Pittsburgh Bariatrics
