Hi, Jim, and welcome to the wonderful world of finding a new YOU! Or perhaps the OLD you that you want back!

I am 7 weeks post op, and the journey has been fascinating, sometimes scary, sometimes kinda strange (not the people here - they're great!, but each day brings more enlightenment.

I would do it again 100 times, no question about it.
