Thanks Lindsay. You rock.

Hey pretty lady. Thank you for helping me out. I appreciate it

Avon??? Great idea. Geez, you know everything

Hey. I noticed you had your surgery about a week before me. I was wondering how long it took for your pain to subside? Thank you

sorry 4 buggin ya again, but another question for ya:

How long did it take for you for abdominal area to feel better? I cant bend down without pain...ouchie

Good idea... I will definately try the benefiber. Thankls

Honestly, I am hungry. OCC said there would be no physical hunger for the first week, but my tummy is growling and all I can think about is food. Maybe this is "mental hunger", but physically I feel empty. I am trying to create a "vision board" with clothes I would like to wear once I lose some weight to try to stay motivated. But man, this is gonna be a long 17 days--URGH!...

ok thank you..ill give that a try

Hey you, love the meet n greet idea!!!

Got a question 4 ya:

I am on day four and according to the surgery guidelines I should not feel hunger, but my tummy is growling and I do feel hungry. Is this normal? Thanks a bunch

Hey I am home as of today.

by clean diet, you mean you NEVER cheat?

Like how many calories should I be consuming?

Ya, I exercised before surgery, but just a step class each week, then I bought an eplitical. What do you do to stay so fit and trim?

Hey Lindsay, Just curious as to what exercises you would suggest for a beginner exerciser (is that a word-lol). I have been doing the eliptical for about twenty minutes three times a week, and Jillian Micheals biggest Loser exercise tape once a week. I dont think I can start exercising again until three weeks...any suggestions?

Hello, I will for sure keep you posted. I am feeling better as of day 2. Still have the heartburn/tightness issue, but its definately not as bad as I thought. The staff at OCC are amazing,so rest assured knowing you will be taken care of. I am staying at the Marriot, its a beautiful hotel, but I have heard the Lucerna accomodates OCC patients better - food for thought. Take Care.

oh my goodness, that sucks....6 months of heart burn - YIKES!

I hear ya. I just got my surgery too and I sorta feel alone in this journey. I question all the time if I made the right choice. However, I am certain I would be asking myself the same thing If I choose not to follow though. Like, you only my boyfriend knows, and boys are well...boys. Talk to me if you need to.

AWWWW, Y our so thoughtful. Surgery went ok, Im just back in the hotel and feeling a little sore, but thats to be expected. I have some serious heart burn, but otherwise I feel great. Ill keep ya posted Sunshine!!! Thans for checking
