It's amazing what 24 hours can do. I feel really good, except for a sore stomach area, and have to be careful how I get in and out of bed. I'm so happy! I'm going to keep reading the forums and learning. Thank you all for sharing your experiences every day. I look forward to improved health and getting into cute clothes. I must put in a plug for Dr. Elias Ortiz, hospital and complete team that runs like a clock. Fabulous. They will also provide plastic surgery services in a year or so, with a price reduction because you had your sleeve done there. I will always have fond memories of Tijuana. I fly home tomorrow. So glad I came!

"Lee, by "own it!" your daughter means that you should be proud of your accomplishment and understand that you deserve this. Not because you have to pay it forward or backward to justify your own benefits. She means that this is YOUR accomplishment, and accomplishing that for yourself is enough. You do not have to fix everybody. And you do not owe anyone for the benefits you have earned. They are YOURS!" Ann2

Rhill2901, I became a member and then wasn't active for a couple of years. Just recently came back in seriousness. So much help here!
