  1. I'm having my surgery Aug 2nd and I'm trying to have every thing ready before hand for what I will need after my surgery. I have every thing done but getting the vitamins I'm gonna need. Can every one tell me what vitamins I'm gonna need and if there's 1 vitamin I can take instead of a bunch? I'm already on 4 pills and really don't want to take many more. Please help.
  2. That to me would be so worth it. Most people only stay one night in the hospital and if they only need half down then u just need 200 dollars. Can't beat that.
  3. Thanks every one. Its faster than I thought it would be. I would be o.k for awhile but my hubby on the other hand not so much. Lol
  4. Congrats and I most will add u. Thought it was just me. Lol good luck update me soon as u feel up to it and ill do the same.
  5. So I'm trying to make I don't forget anything I may need at the hospital since I live 2 hours away and I don't want any company its not like if I forget something I can run get it. I'm not sure if I'm forgetting anything important or not so every body help me out. Maybe my list will help you too. O.k I have tooth paste/tooth Brush, pillow and snuggie, panties/socks x2, 1 change of clothes for the ride home, p.j pants/robe for walking the halls, also slippers, deo, hair brush, shampoo and conditioner if you are like me you will want to shower, chap sticks for the dry lips after surgery, my meds just incase they need them, cell phone charger, and gas x strips. Heard they are much needed after the surgery. Please let me know if I'm missing anything or if I'm over board. Lol thanks sleeve friends.
  6. So many questions come to mind when I Think about life after my surgery. Atleast once a day some one ask me a question about when I will be able to do "this" after my surgery. So here's my question for today. When will I be able to have intercourse again after my surgery, and I need to worry about the staples in my stomach coming out?
  7. Getting so excited as the time gets closer. I often find my self looking for some thing else I can do to get prepaired. Today I think I will go through my closet and dig out some of my smaller clothes (at this size a 16 is smaller clothes) lol. I think when I can start to fit in some of those clothes in the back of my closet, then ill be doing good. Can't wait to see some results.
  8. I am having my surgery Aug 2nd and I'm not worried about anything but the no drinking 30 mins before a meal, with a meal, and 30 mins after a meal. I'm one who really needs some thing to wash my food down with and I'm afraid I won't be able to eat with out some thing to drink. Does any one else have this problem and anyone who might take a sip of even just water with there food and if so are you hungry quicker? Please help.
