Regina D is having surgery Thursday

Almost here....Thursday is the BIG day!! I am so excited and nervous. I am tying up a few last minute issues....in-laws decided to come in at the last minute. Thank GOD!!! I am greatful that they are coming....we just moved to Ada, Ok and don't have allot of support here. I am trying to pack, clean house and oh yeah, I am also on the LIQUID DIET so me and the potty are BFs....enough ranting just had to let it out!! Thanks for listening or in this case, reading!

Reginia, Congratulations on your big day. I'm glad that you have help now. Support always makes life so much easier. I will be thinking of you. Welcome to the other side. ((((HUGS)))), RIta

I just want to wish you good luck!  I'm 5 weeks out from surgery myself, and while the first couple of weeks were a little difficult, I'm very happy with my decision now.  I hope you will be thrilled to join us on the loser's bench! 

I know what you're saying!  I've spent a lot of time in the "powder room" too!    I consider it that much more weight lost!  Sick, huh?  I know exactly what you're talking about.  Tomorrow is my big day and I'm a little nervous but not about the surgery.  I'm worried about what life will be like without my big, old, hungry tummy! Good luck to you and keep in touch! Kim

Regina and Kim I wish you both the best of luck and will be praying for your speedy recovery.  My surgery date was March 12th and I consider that the start of my new journey.  It has been a ride this far and so so exciting.  I would do it all over again from the liquid to the strict diet just to see this 95 pound weight loss.  I NEVER in a million years thought I'd get to live any other way than obese....  My health was suffering, I was beginning to be scared I wouldn't live to see my grandbaby grow up and I felt like crap!!  I have been off insulin since surgery day and other medications as well.  I have so much energy, enjoying exercising now that I feel better and have dropped from a tight 34 to a 22!!!!  YEEEE HAWWWWW....  I LOVE my new tool and than God every day for it, Dr. Walton and all my friends on OH!!!  I can't wait to see less of you Kim....  You are in for a treat...the best is yet to come!!! Debbie

You'll be fine, you can get all the support you need right here, the people you meet on this forum are great, they have been a big support for me. I am 6 days away and just like you, very nervous and excited, trying to remember all the stuff I need to do. Keep the faith, we'll be fine.

Best,

Shelby
