Hi Andrew,

That's great that you're checking different surgeons!  I did the same thing.  I had consultations with both Dr. Sax and Dr. Pohl.  Do you know which surgery you want to have?  I wish you the best of luck with your weight loss journey!  Marcia

That's great Kelly Jo!  Your surgery date will be here before  you know it!

 Question to Romeo and Julie,

Thanks for your thoughts on both PROFECT and NECTAR....can you recommend any particular flavors that you were pleased with - or rather, perhaps displeased with?  The NECTAR comes in an apparently large supply and would have to spend the cash on such a large supply and hating the taste....any recommendations from either of you?

Thanks!

Andrew

(Never too early to start making lists of good tasting protein drinks....)

Thanks Kim!  How are YOU feeling?  Do you still need any pain meds?  Have you started soft foods yet? 

I got a call from the hospital confirming my time tomorrow.  I can't believe I will actually be in surgery in 10 hours! 

I've lost 20 lbs. on the pre-op diet and it already feels so good to get a little weight off.   I can't wait to be on the loser's bench with ya'll!  I'll post as soon as I get home (because of course I'm going to be feeling GREAT).  Maybe not, but I'm going into this with a positve attitude!

Have a great weekend.  Take Care,  Marcia

Hi everyone!

Has most of you have read Marcia's surgery was postponed and she has been rescheduled for Friday morning.   Please keep her in your thoughts and make sure to send her some messages.

I am working tomorrow but will be in touch with her husband and will log into OH from my blackberry to post an update for everyone.  Planning to go by the hospital Friday night as long as I get out on time, if not I will be there Saturday.  I will let you all know how she is doing.  

Let's make some room on the "loser's bench" so Marcia can join us
