Heading to the hospital

Today is the day! I've got the hiccups from being nervous :) Can't believe most of my stomach only has a few hours to live :)

See ya'll on the other side!! Good luck to all my fellow 2/26'ers.

I'm home now. Everything went well. I'm able to drink slowly and don't need too much medication. Just really tired.

Thank you all for your support!

Thanks Laura! I am going slow on the drinking but don't feel any restriction yet. Afraid I'm going to take in too much.

Just measure! I think a good rule of thumb is 1 to 2oz every 10 minutes or so..

And remember you won't "feel" much right now until you are a little more healed and you start mushy type foods. Your doing great! :)
