    I came home on Wednesday too. I had my follow up today and they took out my drain and all the stitches. I feel pretty good. Fasting blood sugar was 73 this morning with normal blood pressure. PTL! It is hard to get the Water in. Today I started my liquid diet and had 1 oz of potato Soup and 1 oz of SF pudding for lunch & dinner. I had one Protein Drink today. I use the Bariatric Advantage vanilla. I put a pinch of SF Jello mix in with 2 scoops of powder, mix it with about 8 oz of water and it is pretty good. I get 27 grams of Protein out of the drink. Tomorrow I will drink one in the morning and one in the afternoon to get my protein in for the day. So far, so good. I take walks around the neighborhood and feeling better each day. I am praying for those that are struggling on here. Stay strong and remember why you decided to have the surgery. God bless!

    Surgery went well. No setbacks. I got home Wednesday night. Tried to stop the pain meds last night. Still a lot of stomach pain. Went back on them this morning. Feels like someone hitting me in the stomach! I came home 15 lbs heavier than when I went in. I have lost 9 lbs since getting home. I'm going for walks, drinking my Water & for a treat I eat a SF Popsicle! Life is good and I am taking it one day at a time! Love to all!!

    Its not hopeless. It depends on you and your commitment to your program. I have nearly 300 to lose and I will not give up.

    I'm in ny with bcbs min was 4 months start to finish an they counted my previous diet attempts and weight with the doctor. Also depends on which procedure you choose. I chose gastric bypass so I don't have to loose weight before hand and my i was 41 so I couldn't really loose just maintain. It was the easiest surgery I ever had and would totally do it again. Down 47 lbs in two months. My skin is looking pretty good and I'm 50!! Lotion lotion lotion!

    liquids today, drank my cocktail at 10 this morning. Felt a little funny since 11:30. I guess that is normal?? Blood sugar is down to 92 & blood pressure is 114/68. These numbers haven't been that low in years!! Hospital called, surgery is tomorrow at 11.

    Day 7 of pre-op diet. It's not been that bad :-) I have been able to drop 27 lbs since Jan. 1st. Surgery date is April 30th. I'm ready for my life without diabetes & high blood pressure! I'm thinking this surgery should be a breeze compared to my last surgery where I donated my left kidney to our daughter in 2003. It was a open surgery that left me with a 8" scar on my left side. I would do it all over again and our daughter has since gave birth to a healthy baby boy 3 years ago! HW: 320 CW: 291 Goal: 175.
