So freakin awesome!

@mexicalivsg Awesome that u are in the journey too. I know we are all going to win our battle. There are many great drs out there.

Lol OMG I meant it "wasn't" particularly painful. Not that it was. You will do fine.

Renee. It was odd feeling it skake out of u It was particually painful, the very last part is a little bigger at noticeable. Not bad not pleaant just one more little thing that u have to do to move to the losers bench. U will be songladd to get it out u wont care. . I really can't stress enough at this point how happy I am about my choice. I know there is a lot of recovery left. But so far it has been better than I hoped for.

I'm back in the USA, waiting for my flight at te airport. FYI quiznos will serve u their chicken noodle soup brith only if u ask. . I'm feeling good. Have not regretted my decision even once for a moment.

Yeah laughter is painful. Lol. Actually as I am getting into bed I feel really good. Get my drain out in the morn and the head to the stated to fly home.

Quints. I am not at nina's I decided I wanted a licensed nurse on duty at the recovery house, so I went through the clinic.

Kemo It has been about what I thought, The facilities, are small bur clean and adequate. I have noticed that they will allow u to not take pain meds if u choose, My advice is to stay on top of the Meds. I ask for mine on schedule and have been ok. The day after surgery was hard but today I have been feeling great. Ready to head home tomorrow. All in all. I am very pleased about my decision. The care has been good, the staff helpful, the comradire among the other patients encouraging. If someone is expecting an American hostpital, and facilities, they will be disappointed maybe scared, lol but that is more because of cultural expectations that care or ability. Or even equipment. I gave not regretted tge surgery or my choice of location. But I have a very adventurous spirit, and a thunk outside the box approach. Oh and my barium swallow was good no leaks!!! I get my drain out in the morning and then head home. Woot!

If u won't broth I would talk with them before have about vegetarian. I am certain try will accommodate u. But honest I have had a drop of broth. Havent wanted it. I am just doing water and 50/50 water juice and popcicles. I might have some broth night maybe. They actually said we could have yogurt today. But again I have just focused on liquids

Quick update. I have Bren at the recovery house all day. I wil be here til Friday morning. It's nicely decorated, there us a nurse on duty all the time. What ever you need will be taken care of. My sister is here with me and us a vegitarian and they have been heat about making sure she is cared for. So far no complaints. Just looking forward to feeling better. Those hiccups really really took ALOT out of me.

Doing alright, gas pains are brutal. I got the hicup's OMG! 20 mins straight. Everyone like get punche in the gut. Sigh. For now they have passed.

OMG ice chips are so good! Lol

Just brought me some ice water. The first thing since surgery yestarday.

Hey folks. I'm sleeved and trying to rest and walk. DR said the surgery went perfect the gas pain? Holy crap! Yeah it is brutal. But I keep walking. They have been great about pain meds and the gas x strips are helping some. So glad I have them! We good night all. Godspeed

Meggiep Godspeed on your surgery and recovery. Congrats on your 18lbs!!!!! I haven't weighed in a few days. I moved Saturday and could find my scale. Lol. So I will see tomorrow before surgery what I lost. Friday morning I was down about 10lbs

I sitting in az waitin on my connecting flight. Wishing one of the food places had a soup. No luck. Oh well, vitamin water it is.

I'm sitting here waiting to board my plane to SD. Excited and nervous. I am so ready to have the surgery begin me and begin the healing an new life.

Well the only problem was I was sitting at the table when I discovered no soup. Lol. It actually wasn't bad I had water and an enjoyable time with my mom and dad. Didn't even have a hard time ignoring the fresh rills that sat on the table for 10 mins while I sat there waiting on them to arrive. Tuesday morning I will be heading across the boarder and getting my sleeve.

So, I am taking my mom and dad out for mothers day. I just sat down figurin I would order a clear soup and just eat the broth. Well, they do not have a single soup!!! Lol. It fugures, I guess this will be the ultimate test of my resolve. Lol

I'll fill ya in. gonna try to video some.
