Welcome to the IL Board Karey and congrats on your surgery date, We are having a party this Sat. I think it is close to where you live, you are welcome to come too, and meet everyone, look for the post about it, and let Lucy know if you want to come, as she is the host. again welcome to the board and we also have morning roll call just to let everyone know how you are doing and what  you have planed for the day, you are welcome to join in their as well,

      Success begins with wise choices I make,I will not let noncompliance be my mistake, The surgery I had was to assist me in changes. My compliance is for a success long range, So I will think before I decide to cheat. Remember the goals I want to meet. For this surgery is not something I was force to do It was what I wanted for a healthy life!

Dear Karey: Welcome to the Illinois board!  We have a great group here and love to meet new friends. The best pointer I can give you is to start exeercising now, before surgery, even if it is just walking.  This will help your body be healthier for surgery and it will start to become a habit that you will need for the rest of your life. Have a super day!

 

Tell someone that you love them!

Hi Karey, congrats on your surgery date. I had gastric by-pass with Dr. Joyce on March 17th. He is an awesome doctor and I was extremely pleased with him, his staff and all the nurses at Silver Cross.
