I think you are doing a great job. I don't think it's a bad idea to wait until you've lost some weight before you walk. There's upper body exersizes you can do, but if you are losing at a rate you are happy with, you could put it off for a while. I don't know how far you've come, but you could probably consider walking at 300 lbs or something. Like you said, there will be some aches and pains that you do need to work through, but tendonitis definitely isn't one of them.
Lose your weight for yourself. You aren't losing weight for your mom, so don't let her thoughts on your progess get you down too much. Easier said than done I know, but you ARE doing great!

alotta stuff depends n your surgeon, me i had to get alotta pre op testing done, blood work, ekg, upper gi, cardio and pulminary. Thank god tho i was able to get all the blood work done at once, it felt like they drained all my blood out at the time tho, lol. but it really wasnt bad, and deffinitly all worth it.
As for the needles thing, it depends on what your surgeons protocal is for surgery, like my surgeon uses an epidural and thats put in while your awake and sitting on the OR table, but dont stress, again its all worth it. :D
