  1. Hi Everyone! Sorry I have not posted in some time. One of my incision sites became infected and I have been sick. I am finally getting better and my fever has broken. I hope you all are doing great!
  2. I began purée today. I had cream of wheat for breakfast and potato soup for dinner. It went fine and I feel great, totally full feeling.
  3. I am 6 days post op today and am having really no problems except for diarrhea. I am still on liquids except for one small serving of creamed soup this evening. Does anyone else have this issue? Sorry for the TMI!
  4. My surgery was great. The pain was less than when I got the lap band. I am home and tired but getting better everyday. No hungry at all.
  5. I am still in the hospital but hope to go home today. I have to get my oxygen Sats up to 92 and I am at 91.
  6. Congrats! That's great!! Today is my surgery day and I hope I am as successful as you!
  7. I know, today is our day!!

  10. Heading to the hospital, scared and excited! I pray I am doing the right thing!!
  11. I am packing my bag for the morning and I hope I don't forget anything! So excited and scared!!
  12. I am on day two of my clear liquid diet. I am so happy I only have to do this for three days, I have no idea how you all do it for longer! I am starving!! I went to the hospital and did my pre-admission paperwork and met with the anesthesiologist. Wednesday is almost here!
  13. I started my liquid diet today. Surgery day is getting so close! Wednesday is the big day for my Lapband to RNY revision.
  14. My liquid diet is 3 days. I don't know waft I would do with a month of liquids!! I am just scared about the surgery period! My surgeon didn't even mention the possibility of not doing the revision so hopefully he will not find a reason for it not to happen. Good luck!!
  15. I will be here next week!
  16. I had my appointment today with the cardiologist. I passed with flying colors and received his blessing for my surgery next week! I hope all of you are doing well!
  17. Praying that everyone who is having surgery this week does fantastic!
