My wife had her WLS about a year ago, and had some problems. If you want the whole story look at my previous posts. She came home from the hospital today, her surgery went very well. Her hernia was repaired first, then she had her tummy tuck, it looks perfect, she doesn't even have any bruising. She has two small drain tubes, and a binder she has to wear for awhile. She finally feels like it was all worth it, I'm so happy for her, and proud of her, she has walked every day since she had her WLS! I also wanted to thank everybody for their past support, it really helped during those tough times.

Sincerely,

Jeff

So glad to hear your wife is doing well and had uneventful surgery. Now let's hope she can stay healthy....she's done a lot of hard work and deserves to just reap the benefits now.

Jeff isn't it amazing how far this tool has helped your wife along in her journey. She seems like she is doing great. I am sure she has gotten some of her motivation from your support and love. Give your self a pat on the back, your the one who deserves the thanks.
