  1. Still in my recliner,wish I was in my bed snuggled with my hunny but we scared since I have this damn bag. Finally got some gas x and it's been working, slowly but I'm happy to say I'm passing gas, lmao. Wednesday I should get this drain bag out of me. Taking it one hour at a time The hubby sleeps a little closer to the recliner so he can hear me cause it hurts when I scream.
  2. Did my own .. well my mom did lol .. she's better at it .. better taste than the store bought ones, just a chicken thigh or beef anything with a bone and with veggies ..
  3. No .. think dr said something about the liver .. I was full of morphine when the dr told me
  4. Had surgery Monday too and had repair to the hiatal hernia .. I'm super sore and I got stuck with this drain .. that bothers more than anything
  5. I had to 6 months nutritionist visits, 2nd opinion from.a different doctor, and whatever testing the dr needed. I was approved within 10 days. The 2nd opinion was an added clause by my employer not the insurance company. And use a bariatric wellness center cause my employer gives 1000 back in hsa for getting the wls..
  6. Think my recliner will be best .. so far it's been easier to get up and sit back down. Did walk in the patio & still trying to pass this gas, burping a bit more. Doing the meds in small doses until I get my mom to get my little one so I can nap ..
  7. First night at home was a challenge. So for stuck with this drain tube, and my stomach is super sore. Tried so many ways to get comfortable in my bed , fail number 1 : my bed is high off the floor and my short self needs help to get on . My husband has literally grab my ass checks and put me in the bed and gently as possible. Tried to put all these pillow and folded blankets around me to get myself comfy , woke up in pain at 130am. Fail 2 hubby said ton wake him to help me move or potty. What he do .. zzzzzzz. So I screamed at my teenager to come help and he did .. walked in the restroom and keep the door slightly opened so he can still reach me , but I wanted to close it and he saw (tmi) my tampon wrapper and asked ,mom u started your period too ?!, I sure did started my period _ perfect timing fail 3.. now I'm sitting in my recliner with my back super sore and stomach sore and trying to burp or far whichever comes out first .. and my 5 yr old wants to watch batman. Took half a dose of my pain meds and sipping on my protein shake ..

  12. I'm super excited !! Monday 9am needs to hurry up !! First time i've been excited for a Monday lol
  13. I have my surgery scheduled for Monday July 13. . So I've been reading about not lifting anything for a few weeks or months -which I completely understand. So I wonder if bodyweight workout would be ok.. any thoughts or experience???
  14. Sitting in the dr office for the pre op visit and tomorrow hospital registration and surgery MONDAY!!! Ahhhhh! ! ????????
  15. I'm taking a whole week off but I figure since I work from home -customer service for a bank- I don't drive ,don't lift, 8 hr desk job with one hour lunch .. figure I can handle it . If see I can't then I can use my fmla for a day off here and there if needed and my shift is from noon til 9pm so no waking up super early and I can walk before shift or use the sationary bike .. think I can handle it
  16. I finally used fmla for my pre op visit Wednesday... starting to feel real !!
  17. One week to go !!! I'm so excited, I have my pre op appt Wednesday, surgery Monday. I've been cleaning and organizing the house so my husband doesn't have anything to do buy take care of me. Starting to pack my bag with a few essential items.
  18. I've been cleaning out sections of the house and everyone's closet is getting cleaned out .. I've had some clothes that were too small so I've been washing them to see when I can wear them after surgery. . 12 days to go !!!!
  19. For some reason feels like I'm 'nesting' .. I have to urge to clean clean clean I've been cleaning out my closet - clothes i know won't fit or wear after surgery Feel the same before giving birth .. like I'm bringing something new .. my new stomach of course .. Anyone else felt like this ????????????????????
  20. He has .. I've been trying to mirror his diet since his surgery. . I'm super excited! !
  21. My husband was sleeved Sept 2014 and I will get the bypass July 13 !
  22. I smoke to help with aniexty, migraines, and to sleep .. and I've wondered what will happen after wls .. I really hate taking pills - rather smoke to help with pain .. I try to reserve my evening snack after I smoke
  23. After my husband wls within the month. . The freak came out .. guess he felt more confident in doing extra moves .. I'm not complaining ???? - hopefully after my wls I can be at his level
