Hi Denise! Congrats on having your surgery! I bet you feel relieved now. It's over and now you are on the other side and can join the ranks of the losers. Welcome, my friend!!! Happy RE-Birthday to you! From this day forward you life will change forever. Just try to take it easy and remember to sip, walk, deep breathe and cough. These first few days are rough, but I assure you they get better with each passing day. I just wanted you to know that I was thinking about you today and that you are in my thoughts and prayers for an uncomplicated, swift recovery. You are an official loser!! Wishing you much success in your weight-loss journey. Soft hugs to you today. God bless, DI from NJ - Lap RNY, 12/09/03 -52 lbs *In Loving Memory of Momma Angel*

Spoke to Denise last evening and today. She is doing great. Some nausea, but nothing a little medicine couldn't take care of. When I talked to her last night, she had already been up walking TWICE. Surgery went well also. Please keep her in your thoughts and prayers!!

From one Modesto Denise to Another!!! I read this somewhere and just loved it, Butterflys are a great symbol of WLS patients. Like the caterpillar, we move slowly. We are not particularly attractive - and most of us are a bit round. Soon, we enter the cocoon stage, where we hide from everyone and everything, and EAT and SLEEP. Then, after WLS we emerge from the cocoon, spread our wings, and when they are dry, we fly off, seeking summer flowers. I love the analogy, and can't think of a thing that is better. So, first the butterflies in your stomach, and in your thoughts - pretty soon, you will have them in your heart, and you will be so proud of yourself, and feeling darn good, too!" Best of luck. Don't forget to wiggle your new wings. May you have an uncomplicated surgery and a quick and painless recovery. P.S. I'm part of the Modesto WLS bunco..Welcome aboard!!
