Pam, Congratulations and best wishes for a smooth and speedy recovery! Don't forget to take a pillow and/or a Bari Buddy (available at the OH.com store) with you to the hospital, you won't be sorry that you did! You need the pillow for all kinds of comforts from coughing to side support and frankly sometimes the hospital pillows just aren't really great. Also, you might inquire with the hospital about whether a fan will be available to you, if not and permitted, you might take one with you. The combination of the narcotics and the leg cuffs they use to prevent clots makes many people very very hot! bright blessings to you in this part of the journey and much success too!~Caroline O.--

Hey Pam, Congrats on your upcoming surgery! I'll be thinking about you Tuesday & saying a little prayer for everything to go smothly. I had surgery at St. Vincent's with Dr. Ben-Meir on January 12, just 3-1/2 months ago. I'm not losing as fast as some but am very pleased to say that as of today I've lost 48 lbs!! I cleaned out my closet today for the 2nd time. You wouldn't believe what FUN that is!! The nurses are super at St. V's so you're in good hands all the way around. Good Luck & post on St. V's message board when you're feeling up to it to let us know how you're doing.

Hi Pam! Big congratulations on your surgery date! I bet you are so excited! Just hang in there and try to be patient! Don’t worry if you are nervous, scared, excited or go through a thousand of different emotions. This is all normal, so go with the flow! Remember that we’re all family here and we’re here to give you our support, lend an ear and not judge. I just wanted you to know that I was thinking about you today and that you are in my thoughts and prayers for a successful, problem-free surgery and recovery. I’m so happy for you. Soon you will be on the other side and will join the ranks of the losers. Get ready for your life to change forever. Wishing you much success in your weight-loss journey. Hugs to you today.
