Tomorrow is my hernia repair surgery. The hernia is so large that the surgeon will be using a sheet of gortex instead of mesh. I would appreciate the prayers of all you AMOS prayer warriors - I do so want this to be an easier recovery than my WLS. I don't post on the board often, but keep my profile up to date. I am down 170 lbs in 12 months & 12 days and finally went under a 40 BMI (39.9, but I'll take it!!) If you are a super sized pre-op or if you are chronologically advanced (I am 55), go visit my site for encouragement. I have tried to be totally honest there!!! Good luck to everyone on the journey, no matter where you are.
