I have my post op appointment next week. I have always thought about it but never thought I would do it. After four kids and alot of other stuff the most I have weighed is 250 lbs, I have been able to get down to 180lbs. The moment I started to go into size 18 and 20, plus I started to feel embarrassed to eat in public I realized it was time to do something now. So after three years I was able to lose weight. I am happy with my size, but my stomach is flabby and I am getting rid of it. I am so excited. So to all the ones that are on the same journey good luck and hope you get the results you are looking for.

As I see the other posts and pictures I think it is making me nervous. Not so much in a negative way but I can feel my heart rate go up as I see some of the pictures as you heal. I am not very good at dealing with pain. I am still going to do it. The kids will be gone for a month and the first few days the hubby will be taking care of me. I will post a current picture soon when I get a few minutes from the kids. Hope every one of you get the results you are looking for and thanks to you all that have kept the posting and the encouragement for us that are on way there. Have a good weekend.

Thanks kimmers, I feel it and I am so excited. My kids don't know, no one knows so one day I am just gonna walk out of my house a new person. My kids will be out of town the whole month aug.

So it will be amazing, and once again thanks for the encouragement.

You bet!   It will be very helpful not having to worry about the kids for a month.  You will be able to focus 100% on yourself and recovery:)

You will love the results.

I will be off work, but I returned to school a year ago. I am supose to start the semester Aug 21, will I be up to sitting in a class a few hours only after 19 days post op or should I take the semester off?

No you will be fine to go back to school.  You will still have some swelling but just listen to your body and go slow.  You will be fine.
