Topic: RE: So Close to Onederland I Can Taste It
Oh well so much for New Years Onederland. I actually gained a pound. ARGH !!! Does not help that my grandma who is in a nursing home took a turn for the worse. She already has COPD and this week she developed a urinary tract infection and bilateral pneumonia. She is not eating or drinking and things are not looking well. I have been spending so much time there and I am not eating well due to what is available to me. I suppose the eating differently added with sitting there for hours not being active is causing the weight gain.
Like you said I will be there soon enough.

Dear Coreen
I sure hope by now the nerves have settled with all the responses you have had. I had such an easy time almost three years ago. It is hard to believe. I am so happy that I had the surgery. Focus on the outcome. You know that you are doing what will get you to a better life.
Many blessings in 2011~

Dear Lucy:
I had Dr Gazmuri but Dr Partridge came in on the weekend to visit. She is an excellent surgeon. I had a private room at NWH because the roomie I had at first had all sorts of psychological issues. She could not calm down. My PM nurse found me a private room at the same rate as the shared room. This did help when I could get some sleep. Lots of interuptions to check on my well being!! But isn't that what we like about the hospital.
I know it was hard to have all those students but they need to learn. I am so grateful for this surgery.
I could do so much more this past fall when I traveled. I was more active and always on the go. I found that it was easy to care for myself because I prepared. I spent five weeks in Europe! I came back nine pounds lighter.

Topic: RE: pre-op weight loss
Hi Candie I am in the same boat.. I started this journey in October I have completed all my pretesting. I do not have a surgery date however I am meeting with the surgeon for the first time on Jan 6th. I have changed the appointment few times because I have not lost the ten pounds. Therefore I am feeling a little nervous about meeting the Doctor this week. good luck to you.
