sentara careplex hospital
I had the same surgeon as you at this hospital! The hospital has a great bariatric wing, some of the nurses were not very attentive but otherwise it was good. You really don't need much...some stretchy clothes to wear home, chapstick (lips get super dry), maybe a magazine (lots of people say they are out of it, but I really wasn't and I was bored there all day by myself)...literally everything else you will need they provide. Good Luck!

Somewhere inside me, there is a fat girl just dying to get back out. I mostly just try to keep her subdued with sugar free pudding, but she's not amused.
Thanks for the info. I'm very nervous/excited. I'm used to unattentive nurses with my 3 c-sections, so if that's the only complaint, I think I can deal. It's amazing how much weight you have lost in a year. You look amazing. I still can't wrap my mind around it....that I may lose 100 pounds. It's been impossible for so long, that I still don't think it can happen. Wish me luck on Tuesday. Thanks.
