Just got my date today....10/23. It seems like forever, but I'm sure it'll be here before I know it.

Anyone else scheduled for October?

Good morning all, had my surgery on the 16th and am so sluggish, had anyone felt this was too on day 4?

Good for you. As well wish you all the luck I no you can do it.

I fell great since my surgery on the 16 I'm just a little sore have to watch how I get up that's all I even did a little light workout today at home.

Wow Honey that is great, I went for a 10 minute walk. I think I just need to catch up on some sleep, my 1st night I was monitored every 2 hrs because of my blood pressure. I am drinking water but I need to drink more and had a protein shake today. Keep up the good work :)

I feel great too.. my surgery was on the 17th... 2 days ago. I am sore of course but otherwise doing great.

I took a heating pad with me to the hospital and I am amazed at how much it has helped me. For those who are about to be sleeved. Take a heating pad and lay on it...... it helps sooooo much.

I feel so out of it and sluggish I had surgery on rhe 18th and came home the day after. Any of you on Tylenol with codeine I think that's why I feel this way trying not to take anymore because the pain is bearable. I can't wait to feel normal again. On what day were you able to get your liquids in? I

I was also sleeved on the 17th I feel good other than a sore tummy. I wanted to know what did the heating pad do for you how did it make you feel. Have you been able to get in the 64oz of liquids b/c I haven't if so please tell me how you are doing it.

The heating pad relieved a lot of pain especially in my back. I am not comfortable on my back anyway.

I just sip water all day. Not thinking I am getting all of the liquid in but close. I have been able to tolerate all the liquids I have tried so far. I start today on a full liquid so we shall see how that goes. I am feeling good all things considered.

Okay so do you put the heating pad on your stomach? I know I haven't been getting all my liquids in. I'm glad I haven't been throwing up anything I have been downing SF Popsicles trying to get in fluids. I start full liquids on Monday still on clear liquids.

Feeling better today, I think I let me paranoia get the best of me. Too nervous to take more than a sip of anything. Drank some Crystal Light which was great on my taste buds, today I am going to try Popsicles and some broth. I still have discomfort but I really try to not take the hydrocodone. How are you all doing with your incisions?

Congrats to all of you post op ladies! I want to ask, were any of you scared up until the very moment of being taken to the OR? I can't shake this fear and still have 5 days until surgery.
