I am 2 days post op and I have been burping like crazy. The doc said it's because I swallow too much air when I drink. I don't think I am, but not for sure...is there a trick to getting a drink and not air?

i just made it home...apparently I have anemia so I have to go back tomorrow for more blood work

I'm very sore

Anyone else have trouble breathing after surgery? I can get over 500 on the incentive spirometer.

I go in at 6am..what about you

Lol we are in the same time zone. I went from 286 to 273 now I'm 275

Today is the big day

Did anyone gain weight after the mag? My scale is either on its last leg or I really gained 2lbs

Tell you what..my bf has not been very supportive today. I was trying to have a serious conversation with him and he was being dumb. Then when I got on to him he got up and left. He's been doing stupid crap all day too...and getting on my freakin nerves

That's great to know. I hope mine goes as smooth as yours

I still have a little bit its only 10 here

I've had about 20 calories today lol plus the mag

I just drank mine too lol..it tasted ok better than what I thought

I kind of got sad yesterday when I realized I could never have a blizzard from dairy queen or cheesy nachos from the mexican place again.

Lol I have to do that too when I get off work at 1230...does it at least taste ok

Less than 24 hours now

7 visits....they count the first visit as 0 since it is your baseline visit.

Just realized...today will be my last protein shake for two weeks. My doc requires only clear liquids and no shakes for one day before surgery and two weeks after.

I have to be at the hospital at 6am on Monday! I'm kind of glad it's approaching, last couple of days I have been kind of hungry

I'm thinking comfy clothes, toiletries, someone said lip balm, cell phone, charger, and can't think what else. I was thinking a robe, but they said they have some if I need one. On my booklet about the hospital, it said I can't use a cellphone in the room...but I'm going to anyways.

Dang that is before the sun comes up lol...

What are you taking with you

I find out tomorrow when I go in on Monday....

4 more days!!! I have to work all week until then but I'm kind of glad because it will make time go by quicker
