Surgery in 6 days. Is this forum still about Weight Loss?
It's six days before my surgery, and I'm not sure what this forum is about. Thanks to everyone for the private messages and answering so many questions for me. I'm not apologizing for expressing my opinion about the Brokeback post, and I am giving this forum another chance at the advice of someone who has given me some great info about my upcoming surgery and what to expect afterwards (you know who you are). Please don't respond to this if you just want to call me names again - I am genuinely looking for advice on what to expect and prepare for on my surgery day, 3/14.
TM It sounds like you have pretty much everything covered. I can not really say I was nervous, but more excited that I was really ready to get rid of a bunch of the 450 plus pounds I had been carrying around. I guess I was at that point where I knew I would die before long, so I felt this was a chance to live longer. I took several t-shirts and shorts along with walking shoes and socks. I hate those gowns they give you where you walk down the hall having to hold it shut in the back or have everyone seeing your ass. I sure wish you the very best next week. Throw out any direct questions you may have and someone here will have some advice. I think one thing to remember is that we all have had different experiences depending on the hospital and our surgeons. I will add that I do not think that I would have made it thru as easy as I did without the information I got from this board. Dan
