So happy for you Tawna! This is great news, I know you've been working very hard. Keep up the good work, you're in the home stretch! That's less than 3 weeks now!

Wink podmates???

Tawna,

OMG!! We are having surgery on the same day, same place, same doc!! I wonder if that means that mine is earlier in the day. I only have the date, not the time. I'm so excited. 2 East County patients together!! I'm so happy for you that they gave you a date. Keep going on your diet so you can get those extra pounds off. Gee, I hope I don't have any surprises when I go for the pre-op visit on 8/16. I haven't even had a dr visit yet, at least not with Dr. C.

19 days!!!!!! Let the countdowns begin!

Hey Robin,

I know isn't it exciting!! I do believe you are the first case! LUCKY!! I had already asked about that spot and she said it was filled! She said that it was up to to Dr. C!

As far as you pre-op visit with Dr. C, please do everything you can to lose weight, I feel that is the most important thing, as I learned from my last pre-op visit!!

So.......I can't wait to meet you there! we will be recovering together!!! You can lean on me... Well It would be nice if we could arrange something to meet before hand! Let me know if you are interested!! Good luck to you!!

~Tawna~

Yes, we should absolutely meet. I can't plan anything this week because my baby girl (18) is in town but after she goes back to her college town, I'm a free woman! We could always plan to car pool to Rain's support group on the 14th. I think you'd love it and I'd be happy to pick u up.

I'm pretty sure it's a 7PM on the second Tuesday of every month, which this month will be the 14th. Last month was the first one I went to and I didn't get home til after 11pm. But I think I was one of the last to leave. Ok! We have a PLAN! I'll PM you my phone numbers. Call anytime.

Talking 14 Days

In just 2 weeks you and I will officially take our place on the LOSERS bench. I can't wait! How's the diet going? I'm sure you're doing just great! I meet with Dr. C next week and can't wait. Hopefully, they're not going to give me just 5 days to lose a bunch of weight. I've lost about 10 pounds on my own, so hopefully, all will be "good to go"
