    Hi, Laurie!
    I was starting to worry about you. I thought perhaps you had fallen off the face of the Earth when I didn't hear from you..LOL. I am glad to hear you are doing well and have triumphed over your roadblacks! I too am doing well. I keep stalling in my weightloss, and that has had me very frustrated from time to time. However, overall, I am just truckin' along. Thank you for the compliment on my newest photo; I appreciate it! I look forward to some new and updated photos of you on your profile, so I too can compliment you! Wishing you continuing success and joy in your journey!
  4. How are you ? I saw you on a post yesterday. Hope things are going well. I had surgery two weeks ago. All went well so we will just leave it at that.

    Hi, Laurie! Just thought I would say hello to my fellow South Carolinian. I hope this finds you in health and happiness!
  7. I'm doing ok I'm sticking to it ,I'm loosing a few pounds a week. I meet with my surgeon feb13 I should get my date. I've finished all the tests I've dropped 25 lbs . After reading on here and vertical sleeve.com I think I'm as ready as I can be, I'm a very positive person , I think mind over matter. I'm glad to here your feeling a bit better, just so I understand the kidney stones came from the extreme dehydration that put you back in the ER is that correct? Do you use, my fitness pal . Com? If not it may help, you can trac water or fluid intake along with protein,carbs all the things you need to stay on track and heathy, also me and others from this site are friends and we can see if anyone missed tracking and could help keep a eye open for you. The reason I say this is, I first reached out to you in a post I can't remember to drink. Anyway I need to get out of bed and get the day started. I look forward to your reply.
  8. How are you Laurie ? I've not heard your seen any post's from you lately ?
  9. How are things going? Also could you tell me how to get a pic on my profile ? I've asked but don't seam to get a answer.

    Hi- My post-op stinks very much regretting all of this. Cant keep anything down seems like I am always throwing up. Not losing much either. Hurts to eat anything.
    Wish I knew all of this before hand.

    Hey Laurie, our surgery date is the same day. I am worried about the gas pains, so I'm going to walk, walk, walk. I'm getting more nervous by the day. How is your preop diet going?
  15. Good luck tomorrow. My pre-op wasn't too bad. Ultrasound of my legs for DVT, chest x-ray and blood work. And a TON of questions from the nurse. I am all set for next week. I bought myself a new robe and slippers. I've had a few abdominal surgeries before so I know the cure for the gas pain afterwards is to walk, walk, walk. And some pain meds!

Sleeved or not sleeved:
I have had a gastric sleeve.
Biography:
I am a married mother to 2 girls that are 12 & 18. My 18 year old is developmentally delayed so raising her has taken a lot of extra effort. I am happy to say she will be graduating high school in 2012, just a year behind. I recently lost my mother in September 2011 after taking care of her most of my life, but especially during her illness the past 3 years. My therapist told me that it is now time to take care of me so I decided to have the gastric sleeve surgery. Look out world, here I come!
