Just got done with last minute preparations - finished packing, epi-ladied my legs lol, last minute laundry,etc.

I usually like to come home to a nice clean house when I travel, but hubby & kids will be here all week so I'll be lucky if it's still standing when I get home, geesh.

Just called my doctor and got my surgery time 11:30am...I'm happy, nervous, excited, scared, afraid but somehow I'm at peace with my decision and I know God will make a way for to come out of this surgery successfully.

On lighter note my grandmother called and asked if I wanted to go out to Breakfast with her today. I was like I can't. She then said ok after your surgery we can go. I was like Grandma I won't be able to eat out for quite sometime and I explained the ins and outs to her and now wants to do the liquid diet thing with me to get a good cleaning out she says.......leave it to people to equate this to a good bm......

My surgery is Thursday, May 17. Won't know the time till between 6:00 & 8:00 pm Wednesday night. I am a little nervous, but comfortable with this decision. I've lost 51 pounds in preparation for this, in hopes it would make the surgery go easier. Also makes the pre-op diet easier as its kind of close to what I've been eating for several months. Good luck to all my fellow may sleevers. Looking forward to heari.g of everyones progress. I so appreciate all the support from everyone hear.

I had my surgery today. It was supposed to be at 3:30 PM, but the hospital called to have me come in early, so it was actually around 1 PM instead. I was out of recovery & in a room by 5 PM. I've been for one walk around the hall & plan on doing another walk soon to try to wake up my bladder more because the only downfall is that I haven't been able to pee yet! Other than that, though, I'm doing well. I'm glad I have pain medicine, but with the medicine the pain is bearable and not too bad.

      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?
