I had the same question. I am 3 days postop and my stomach makes the craziest sounds besides growling all day long. I am having a hard time taking deep breaths. It hurts a lot. I use my spirometer ever 2-3 hours. And when I cough I feel like my insides are coming out...ouch. I was hoping to return to work next Monday but honestly I don't think I'm going to feel up to it yet.... I am a custodian. Thank God I only gained 3lbs in the hospital and have already lost it.

So excited! After waiting patiently for three months. I have finally gotten my surgery date October 6th! I have lost a total of 29 lbs so far. Wish it would have been more but I guess I wasn't as dedicated to my 1 meal a day as I should have been. I did great with the shakes and sf Jello and popsicles and string cheese but just wasn't hungry enough to eat at lunch time and have meat and veggies. So i didn't consume enough calories therefore I didn't lose enough weight. Oh well you live and learn. I will be sure to do so after surgery and for the next couple of weeks!!
Getting excited and nervous at the same time!

Thank you all for your kind words. It's nice to know ur there for me. There is another surgeon that works along with mine and they are going to see if he can fit some of us that will consider him into his schedule. I am all for it. I am just ready to GO and get this done!!!
But I will stay on track and continue to do my exercise and continue to try to lose weight as much as possible. As upsetting as this all may be I know I need to be positive and realize that there is a reason for all of this.
