Ok guys, I DID IT!!! I have to be honest though yesterday was not fun. Everyone is different and I was hoping to be one the lucky ones and whiz right through but not the case. It took 6 different tries to get my IV in, and coupled with my anxiety, wasn't good. The incision pain I can deal with, but this gas pain is all over my abdomen, shoulders and back. It really does help to walk although it is very painful gritting in and out of bed. I vomited many times yesterday and that hurt so bad. So if you can do anything, try not to, I just couldn't do it. BUT..... Today is much better, I already had to drink the leak dye and I keep telling the nurse I was going to throw it up, but I didn't, I actually kept it down. My heating pad I brought has helped me immensely with my shoulder and back pain so if you have one pack it.! so I'll try and post later and tell you how today goes.

OMG! Leaving for the airport to fly to Mexico in less than an hour. Not even hungry anymore, to anxious for that. I will keep you all posted on how we do as my best friend is getting it done with me! My daugter is going to take care of us both. Anyone else going to be in Tijauna today through Tuesday, look us up.

You show an awareness of the nature of this surgery. It will change your life. You will bid goodbye to former emotional supports and say hello to new strengths. It is a passage as profound as graduation or marriage. You are dying and being born at the same time. That which once defined you no longer will, you are writing a new identity. You are releasing into freedom the self that was always there and parting with the one that imprisoned you.
You are a sentient being of immeasurable worth who treasures life. Your emotions are valid.
My best to you.

My first post ever, been reading for weeks, but finally ready to post! My date and friends date is June 7 in Mexico. Today is first day of preop diet. 3 Protein Shakes a day with light dinner. 3 days out only liquid. So So nervous, can relate to all of you, but so so excited to start the rest of my life healthier. I think that's what keeps me from bolting for sure. Anyone else being sleeved in Mexico in June?

.
I am taking this with me to Mexico and keeping it with me to for my motivation when I am going through my scariest times before and after surgery. Thanks Prettynpink!
