I am over pre-op and back home from visiting for thanksgiving. I DID NOT CHEAT ON PRE-OP. I have to go to the hospital shortly, be there at 6 am and surgery will be at 7am this morning. Time went by so quick. I will let everyone know how it goes as soon as possible. Thank you for all your support and prayers. Pinch me to see if this is for real or just a dream!!

Yay for not cheating! You are already at the hospital, and I am thinking positive thoughts for you right now. I can't wait to hear from you when you feel up to it!

In my prayers....hope all turns out well!

Thank you for all your thoughts, comments, and prayers!! I came home on Dec. 5 and I am doing oK. Had lots of bad Nausa, but no vomiting. The only pain that I have had is from gas pains. I try hard now to keep them down with meds and watching what I drink.

I was worried at first because my weight was up to 235 the day after I got home and the night before surgery I weighed 232. But now I am told that was probably some water, so I do believe it was, because now on Dec. 10 I weigh 226.6 pounds. That was a weight loss of almost 10 pounds in 4 days. I am so happy that I got the sleeve and Dr. Husted my surgeon here in Somerset Ky. is so great. He did not do a leak test. He has a very good reputation. I thank God and my Surgeon for everything going so well. Now I have a long journey ahead of Me to try to do my part. I have not been walking as much as I should be, but I try to get in some each day. I am having a little bit of a problem trying to find things to Puree on my Pureed Diet that will last one more week. I will be on soft foods starting on Dec.16. That is also the day that I go for my two week check up. I went to see a nurse at my family doctor's office yesterday and she said so far everything looks fine. I will be posting on different threads that I have started, so if you would like you may go to statistics on my profile and read all my posts. Thank you again and I hope you all have a happy, and healthy journey with your surgery and recovery!!
