4 Days Left, I need to Breathe

Okay here it is...the countdown begins. I am having surgery on Monday and I don't think it has totally hit me yet. I sooooo cannot imagine myself a skinny person at all. It just seems wierd. Plus I have been having all sorts of wierd dreams like I walk out of surgery and my best friend is force feeding me hot dogs. Wierd huh????

Anyhoo I'm so ready, I have been absolutely miserable the past few months, and it's totally due to all of this extra weight. I can't wait for Monday!!!!!

Pray for me,

Katie

Katie,
You'll do great, your surgeon is awesome, you are in good hands.  I had my surgery on the 4th
and it went very well,  I'll be waiting for you on the losers bench.

Hi Katie,
        Just wanted to say good luck and RELAX. You are in the best of hands with Dr. Gazmuri he did my surgery 7-31-2008 . He is WONDERFUL. I have lost 71 lbs since 7-31 I have 32 more to go. This is the best thing you can  do for yourself. Again best of luck with everything.

Katie -

CONGRATULATIONS IN ADVANCE!!   Monday is the first day of the rest of your life!!! 
Maybe you should have some hot dogs before you go! 

after 3 1/2 months, I'm into my smaller clothes from my closet, weigh what I weighed in 1993, and feel great!   You will too!!!!

Good luck, and don't worry - you're not crazy, we all freak out just before surgery.  You'll do fine, I'll pray for you!

i'm still waiting to freak out - 4 weeks after surgery.  Everything has gone exactly as I've been told it would, with no major incidences.  I wish you nothing but the same!!!  I do not see any change in the mirror, but with my diabetes and high blood pressure all but a memory, i don't care.  I am going shopping for some new pants tomorrow though.  my family is making fun of me because i nearly need suspenders.

Anyway, good luck and we welcome you to the loser's bench!

Katie,

You'll do just fine.  I had my surgery on 12/1.  Once you are on this side you'll never look back.

I too had Pablo Gazmuri. 
 

I am down one hundred pounds since the evening of the day  I arrived home. It was the beginning of my rebirth.

Dr Sheila Partridge assisted on my surgery.

I love them both. They saved my life.




Wearing size 12 pants with some 10's waiting in the wings.


You wouldn't believe the amount of clothes I have given away.

Look at pictures of me on sparkpeople.com  also.

Don't worry about a thing.  I had my surgery almost 2 months ago, and although this time period is one of learning and adjustment, it goes by fast.  It's not easy once you're home, but you do get used to things pretty quickly.  You'll be so happy you did this for yourself.

Hi Katie

You will do fine. Dr G. assisted in my surgery 11/19/07. I am doing great. It will great for you. Just take a deep breath. Just dream how skinny and healthy you be in one or two months.
You will be in great hands.


You will be in my prayer
