  3. I was sleeved Monday and doing ok. What happens Monday at my preop appt besides eating yogurt and pudding?
  4. I was sleeved Monday. Sometimes I feel pain in my chest and stomach. It expands a bit. Is this gas? Tips?

  7. Home now so glad I did this!!!!!!!!
  8. Recovering in hospital
  9. I am tomorrow too and today is like Christmas eve to me!!!! Go us!!
  10. My surgery is Monday and it has been a tough 2 weeks. I followed my diet for the exception of small cheddar biscuit, a tablespoon of marinara and a little butter on Fridays lunch. Wednesday I ate a bag of Gummy bears. How bad is this? I am 246 5 8 and lost 20 lbs since my consult.
  11. My surgeon didn't recommend band since he removes them a lot.
  12. Mine is 15th. I can't concentrate at this point. I worked from home this and signed off at 3. They should approve days before surgery
  13. http://www.npr.org/blogs/thesalt/2012/10/09/162563213/doctor-approved-discounts-for-gastric-bypass-patients-at-the-buffet All the uneducated comments are eye rolling!
  14. Ok one week well 6 days to go. I will call this Hollywood week like American idol to stay positive.
  15. This was awesome. I had some plastic done and this doesn't seem to hurt anywhere near. I wasn't nervous just wanted to know what to expect. My mind is so focused on week two preop diet. One week to go. This is the best decision I made as I already cleaned out my closet after losing 18 lbs in wk one and by dieting 2 months before preop diet. I never will need these clothes again and into some non plus size clothes! Go me!
  16. All I remember is how painful the tummy tuck was!
  17. For those that had the surgery how painful was it when you woke up? Next day at home? Can you sleep ok? My surgery is next monday preparing myself.
  18. I tell those that will get it. Don't bother trying if they dont. Waste of time.
  19. 7.5 lbs my first week of preop!!!! Yeah!! 20 is gonna feel great.
