  4. @@krissyleigh you will do great! You will probably feel a little groggy coming out of surgery, but the nurses were wonderful with keeping up on pain meds and nausea medication. I was a little bit sore, but most of all I was just so tired from the anesthesia. I had my surgery a week ago (10/26). The hospital stay wasn't bad at all! You are going to do wonderful!!!

  6. I'm the same way!!! I'm one week out and was given the ok for puréed foods. I was so excited that I made some scrambled eggs this morning (eggbeaters) and I'm thinking it was too thick. I got really sick! I literally took like 3 bites and puked for hours! It was horrible!!! I'm finally feeling better now. This head hunger sucks! Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App

  17. Well, surgery is scheduled for tomorrow morning at 8 am and I am starting to freak out! I am so nervous for the surgery itself and how horrible I'm going to feel afterwards. I keep telling myself I made this decision awhile ago and want to get healthy. I'm just so nervous and anxious. Any words of wisdom out there?!
