On my way to surgery in 20 minutes.

I'm so nervous! I think I'm worried about the pain and the fact that part of my body will be gone than the actual procedure itself. I keep thinking: what if this is a mistake? but then I think about how long this journey has been and how much I've wanted this, and I just want it to be done in over with.

I was lucky that I only had to fast for 24 hours and I couldn't drink anything in the last 8.

I can't wait to meet everyone on the losers bench! Here's to an amazing journey.

I am 2 days out and trust me, there is nothing to worry about. The doctors are professionals, they'll take great care of you. I'm just a little sore, drinking my juice and trying to retrain myself to sip. That's the hardest part this far! The surgery itself is over before you know it. Try to walk as soon as your able and keep making the time to walk. It makes drastic changes one day to the next. Best wishes!

Couple of days out....how do u guys feel? Im still at hospital because i couldn't keep down liquids. :-( but i feel ok overall.

I had to stay an extra night because I couldn't keep the tylenol codeine down. vomiting wasn't very fun :[ I was released today and I'm feeling much better. I keep drinking liquids, but I'm doing a bad job at pacing myself. I get really full, and I'm worried I might cause myself to have a leak or something.

How are you feeling today? Can you keep your liquids down? REMEMBER TO WALK!!!
