  1. I am very very happy that I am done and can start to eat food again in a week or two. I was stressing over the surget but it went so well. I was blessed for sure.
  2. I cheated in my pre op diet too, but surgery today went well for me. I wish all of you tomorrow the best luck and I will pray for a safe a speedy recovery.
  3. Surgery this morning. We got to the hospital about 8:30 this morning. They started getting me prepped for surgery right away. I went in to the OR about 11:15 or so. And was home by 3 pm. My husband and mother were at the hospital with me. I even walk out of the hospital on my own. The gas pain is the worst in my upper chest area. It hurt to take in a deep breath. I have been up and walking around with very little difficulties.

  9. I cheated on my pre-op diet. I did not cheat badly but I am on a liquid diet and I had food. Is this bad? Will they cancel my surgery? I am scheduled for this Thursday at 10:30 am. I feel bad and support system has been doing it best to help me stay on track but most of all I have failed myself. Not happy and scared. What do I do? I feel so down.

  11. Whe is your vacation? I also go on vacation 30 days after surgery. I was thinking the same thing.
  12. Good Luck ladies on you surgeries let us know how it goes. I have about 1 1/2 weeks left on my liquid diet. I did ok to start out but then over the weekend I was just so hungry. I think it was because I worked hard this weekend cleaning the house before surgery and things it may have made it harder. So now that I am back at work it is not so bad but the people here keep making all kinds of food to sell during the day because we don’t have a cafeteria for the next two weeks. It makes it hard smelling all that good food.

    Today when I woke up I was not hungry at all. I made myself eat before we left for church. I got home took a nap then when I got up I was almost starving I could have eaten almost anything. I did not but food I can smell it. I had to make my daughter a hotdog and wow I just wanted a bit so bad. It made my mouth water and everything. This seems sad to me cuz I hate hotdogs. I use to think they were gross and did not eat them too often but now they are making my mouth water lol strange how things work. Wow I just want something more than shakes and soup.
