I couldn't be more excited. Since I work in the OR, I am comfortable with going in. I have been on clean liquids since yesterday and I am starving. Of course, not really starving but it feels like it. Getting ready to get in the shower then head off to the hospital. Eeeekkkkkk! (girly scream)

Say a prayer for me today!

I am up! So my mom, hubby, cousin and neice arrived at the day surgery desk of the hospital at 5:15 as scheduled however there wasn't anybody to check us in until 5:30. No sweat of of my back.

Checked in, gowned and sitting in bed while my pre-op nurse comes in to tell me that my 7:15 surgery is delayed due to an emergency case who spent all night in the SICU and needs immediate attention. No big deal again. They move me to a private room verses a curtain partitioned room. My boss calls me via the pre-op nurse phone just to tell me she is thinking of me. This is sweet because she and I work in a hospital across town and she made some calls to find me! 12ish, the CRNA comes back and tells me it is almost my turn. Whew! I liked her, I really did like her. She came recommended to me and let's face it....I wasn't having just anybody monitor me while I was under anesthesia. That stuff is what scares the crap out of me. Around 12:30 I got some versed and by 1:00 it was lights out for me! I woke up around 2:00 and with terrible nausea and gas pains. Made it home but don't remember the ride. Slept, walked and pee'd until around 8ish. Now I am awake. Still no incision pain, just gas. Deep breathing exercises for me.

Now, I just am excited to start getting my old life back. Before the fat, I was thin. Here I come!

Thanks for the prayers ladies!

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
