Today's the day! 11 surgery. So excited!

I'm a revision from band to sleeve as well. Keep us posted on ur journey.

Had surgery yesterday. I'm in a lot of pain. On morphine and delotin. And it still isn't taking the pain from my Inscitions away. My stomach muscles keep cramping up together whenever I try to move, sit up, sit down, lye down, you name it. I have to pass has and get my pain in control before they'll let me leave. I'm hoping for this afternoon.

Thanks so much for putting me in the spotlight this month!! I am honored!!! And proud of course!!

Don't even think that what she said was about you. You are showing courage, making positive decisions about your future and you are giving yourself the option of a much healthier, happier and longer life . She is ignorant about this whole journey to wellness, she is jealous of your bravery to make such a substantial change in your life, she doesn't have have the self confidence to make this kind of decision for herself. You don't own any of her perspectives or dismal outlook.
You are strong and you can do this. Perhaps when she sees your success in the coming weeks and months she will see you as the inspiration she needs to take this plunge for herself! She's just not ready and your determination is likely a scary mirror in which she is reflecting her current condition.
Feel great about YOU!

7 days down, 7 more to go. 2 pounds down!!!

I have been trying the new Swansons infused chicken broths. The Mexican Tortilla flavor is out of this world. Hot and Sour is good, too, but a bit much the first week after surgery lol. At last, liquid diet with flavor! They are very low calorie, low fat. Great for a pick me up.

WOW, Counting today, there are 71 from our group who has undergone the surgery!! Amazing, and we are not even half way there, so exciting:). Tomorrow will end our kickstarters n we Ty n much continued successes n healing. The 11th will begin our middle of the roaders, yeahhhhhh. The 20 th, our caboosers! New year's, we are all coming for you!!!

That's what I was thinking. Maybe I need to start thinking of it like that. I'll have pizza agin someday. Not all of it but I'll have a taste.

Anyone else a band to sleeve for December?

My surgery date is Dec. 20th. I meet with my surgeon & nutritionist on the 13th. With those dates being so close together I am glad that I will not have a lengthy pre op diet (if any) It feels like I have been waiting so long that having a date still doesn't feel real.

Got a call from the hospital to register me for surgery. Makes it feel just that much more real. Two more weeks.
