I agree weakening or disolving would be great but Its about to be to cat 5 so highly unlikely. I am trying to think that my surgery probably won't happen so I will not be so disappointed. They said even if it follows it's projected path we will still have Tropical Storm like conditions. For all of you who don't live near an area where there are potential for Hurricanes I hope you don't think I am being callus about where the storm goes. I would never hope for it to go to LA or anywhere else for that matter, I just don't want it to come here.

Maybe by the 4th everything will be back to normal for you, CP3260! Ferrari did one of my best friends surgery. She started at 330 and now wears size 2. She really liked him.

Hey Gang! Today is day 4 of my 14 day pre-op diet and I had killer leg cramps last night.  I know it is lack of potassium but not sure how to get potassium back into my system without blowing my pre-op liquid diet.  I feel great other than than and lost 7 pounds in 4 days. WOOHOO!! My doctors office is closed for the 3-day weekend.  Any advice would be appreciated.

Contrats on the September 17th date.....I am having surgery that day as well in barrington illinois.  It will be a start of a great adventure!!

Good luckIwill pray that the hurricane deispates and doesn't hit anywhere.

Can yall all please pray for the hurricane to go away from the Houston area (sorry all yall from LA but you know your praying for the same thing in reverse) ! It is scheduled to hit on the day of my surgery and the models keep brining it further toward Houston. I know this is terribly self-centered to think of that at a time like this but it took an act of God to get my surgery approved and now it may not happen. Plus I really don't want to evacuate again. 24 hours to go 120 miles with 6 kids and a farting dog plus no bathroom is REALLY not fun.
