I get not PUSHING beliefs on others, but i dont feel any of your posts have ever done this. There are people talking about being vegan after surgery, just because I am not vegan doesnt mean i cant read or need to be offended that they are different. Whats going to happen if a non Christian reads your post? Will it burn holes through their retinas, no! I feel that whether i share it or not, if someone is using their beliefs in a positive way, there is no harm done. This world needs as much POSITIVITY as it can get! I welcome, thoughts, vibes, prayers to whatever god u believe in, because the fact that you took a minute of YOUR day to do something positive for me is very thoughtful. Just my opinion......

I am on day 7. Half way through hell...lol

Freedom of speech. You do know you can block a person if you dont like or want to see what they are saying, right?

Alot of people say dry mouth spray comes in handy. I plan to take my own pillow too. Those beds are uncomfortable enough, let alone a flat pillow. I will also be able to use it to hold against my stomach as support on the car ride home.

Please do not take this as rude or disrespectful, but if you have to prepare for a psych eval, maybe you arent ready for surgery.

Im on day 6 of 14. I remember 6 mos ago thinking to myself am i going to be able to adapt my eating afterwards? Now i would kill for some of the puree recipes ive seen!

16 pounds in 3 weeks isnt bad at all, I wouldn't think. Especially considering most people gain a few lbs after surgery from all of the IV fluids etc. I dont think i would get too upset yet.

You dont really look like you have any extra skin! What is your secret or did you just get lucky and have excellent genes?

I cant have the tv on for 10 mins without seeing pizza, fried chicken, steak, junk food. This pre op diet is hard enough on its own! Comcast is trying to kill me I swear! Does seeing the stuff you really like but "can't or shouldn't " have get easier post op? These cravings right now are crazy!

I was told that it could take a week or 2 to start losing due to swelling, fluids from your IV and just till your body realizes whats going on. I know its easier said than done but I wouldn't worry yet!
