  2. http://www.iwashyoudry.com/2014/03/15/butterfinger-protein-shake/?utm_source=feedly&utm_reader=feedly&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=butterfinger-protein-shake I am so glad I did not get a drain! It does feel like that coming home at first but I promise you'll adjust I have been more comfortable here than in the hospital. I haven't really been counting but I think I have had one full 16oz Poland Spring bottle today a few sips of broth, my amazing Protein shake and now my SF Italian ice !
  3. Earlier I felt like I was hit by a Mack truck! But now I'm okay, I had a butterfinger protein shake that was to die for! And lots of water, still not hungry and no metal taste in my mouth so this tells me that tomorrow will just be better !
  4. Yes! All the time especially now that I'm home and everyone is eating around me! But I take out my phone and look at the pics I took of myself the night before and I remember... This is why I'm going through this now! So I can get to my after picture!! Hope this helps
  5. Do not get me wrong! I feel like absolute shit! My gas pains are kicking my ass! But I keep thinking about my after picture! And where we are gonna be! So as long as you have that to look forward to then we're going to make it through this!

  10. It will be here before you know it! Just think of all of us sitting on the losers bench cheering you on! And welcoming you with open arms!
  11. Lemme see... I was fine until the were about to roll me away and then I burst in to tears out of nowhere! They gave me some Valium in my IV and then I was fine! Went to the OR went to sleep and woke up done! The only annoying this is the gas pain. But if you get the gas x strips and walk you will be a okay! I did not get anything last night because I had to do the "leak" test this morning! I did just have a sip of broth and a lemon Italian icee and I am so full! Good luck to you dear you will do great!

I am definitely on the same page as you! I have a 2yr old daughter who I am doing this for, to show her a good example going forward. Good luck to you and I'm always here if you need me!
  15. Welcome Tee and good luck to you tomorrow!!! If you ever need anything or just need to vent we are here to listen !
  16. I wish I was prescribed something for tomorrow! I'm not nervous now but I know I'm going to be a mess when I have to say bye to my daughter and arrive to the hospital

  18. Hey Everyone! Just wanted to check in to see how everyone is doing? And to see what you have done so far -Are you excited? -Have you packed your hospital bag yet? -Is any family going w you? If so how are they feeling? -Have your nerves kicked in? -Have you done all your shopping and cleaned your houses?? -What time is your surgery??! -Have you done any spa treatments? Well I'll go first! So I am doing pretty okay this morning I'm hungry but I'll get through it. I am very excited, not nervous at all! I have not packed yet but will be doing that toning, because I know I probably won't be sleeping. I did do all of my shopping and finished the last bit yesterday. I'm going to clean my house from top to bottom today to keep myself busy! Also I have a facial and massage booked this morning just to relax myself (did my mani/pedi over the weekend). I do have family going w me but they are not really in support of this so I don't really know how they feel... I am the first surgery in the morning so I have to be at the hospital at 6:30a ! I hope everyone has a safe surgery and a quick recovery! Please feel free to keep us updated on this post so we can help each other these next few days! Talk to you all soon! Brittany
  19. Hey guys just a quick question, having surgery on Wednesday and I wanted to know if doctors do a urine test to check for pregnancy right before taking you in to surgery? I saw a video on YouTube of a girl that was pregnant during surgery but didn't find out until later and it was too late...
  20. @@BLERDgirl I have to do a milk of magnesia prep day before surgery so I hope that helps but I would really like to go like today or tomorrow not wait 4more days
  21. Omg I can't poop for the life of me!!! And it's driving me nuts because I'm so bloated!!!! I have been taking Miralax for the last three days and nothing it just makes my stomach bubble. I tried a laxative and nothing just gave me bad cramps ! Do you guys really think it's the sodium? If so how do we correct this?! I'm going to need to have a huge poop before my surgery Wednesday! Ugh very frustrating and uncomfortable!!!!
  22. Omg where can you even find these? I have been to 6 different stores and nothing! I love spicy!!!!! I need to add some type of probiotic because this protein is constipating! Whoop whoop only 6 days after today!
