  • I saw my dietician and weight loss center nurse today. One week until surgery and I'm starting to get nervous. I'm super excited though. I've lost 30 pounds since May and can't wait to lose more!!!! G

5 days post-up and i feel wonderful! my husband and i went out today and walked the flea market and than we even went out and got tattoos afterwards. (our 1 yr is on September 3) I still am a little sore but not that much at all. I find my self still gassy i feel like a man with my burps and farts. Thatsn not usually like me to just let it all out but i cant help it. I slept in bed last night and it felt wonderful still using the heat pad but ive been awake for almost 11 hours and thats really good considering ive been doing nothing but sleeping! Also havent been taking an rx pain pills, been sticking to nothing but aleve. I even cleaned the house today.. with help from my husband and son. I just hope the days get better and better and i dont go down hill anymore. I hope everyone is doing good and if you are still having troubles remember there is light at the end of the tunnel!!!!

Good luck binab, mrslogan0612, BeeBlueheron, dwilliams, Kdubb

I'm in the same boat. Mine was going to be tomorrow. I'm at the hospital doing my pre-op. it's rescheduled for Thursday the 30th. Did u get a new date?

Yes I have a new date it's September 11, can you believe that 9/11? I will be sooooo happy when I'm on the other side of this recovering :) Good Luck to you and God bless.

We are home, sore, parched, little nauseas, very sleepy. I go night night now. :)

Hope everyone else is doing well.
