Topic: RE: surgery tomorrow!!! And EMMC question
I hope that you can still go through with surgery tomorrow!

I had the most annoying roommate EVER.  She was not a bariatric patient - some kind of leg surgery - but was loud and obnoxious, as was her family.  I was SO glad to go home to finally get some rest!  LOL

I think they probably would put bariatric patients together, but the only other person I know of who had surgery the same day as me was a guy.  EMMC hasn't progressed to co-ed rooms yet.  ;)


HW: 280  ~20 lbs lost prior to start of program

Topic: surgery tomorrow!!! And EMMC question
So tomorrow is the big day!  I'm over my cold and dealing with oral thrush at the moment, I'm hoping that's not a reason to postpone surgery, I'm swishing and swallowing the meds for that and its much better but not gone.  I lost what I needed to to be under my last weigh in so I don't have to worry about that anymore.  I am so paranoid that they'll reschedule me still.  I need to be more zen and think it will be what it is and I can't control it.  If I don't have the surgery tomorrow then I'll have it soon and it will still be fine (can you tell I'm trying to talk myself into that, LOL).  So my question is for anyone who had their surgery at Eastern Maine, did you have a roommate and was that roommate also a bariatric patient?

I'm just curious.

I finally got to Wal-Mart and these are the ones I use.  They just came out with new ones that have a lace pattern along the bottom and the top.  I have found them to be true to the sizing on the back.  They are called Sweet Nothings and are $15.00.  Let me know if you need any other information.
