Its coming up quick! Going to pre op class this Wednesday.

Muuaahahahaha I'm sorry that's not really funny its it kind of is... lol. Now why would they issue stupid numbers like 13 and 666. Stay positive!

In some cultures six is a number that means family and friends and the home so it could mean you have a lot of people pulling for you!

Fabulous Katia! I was sleeved at 9:00 am and only minor pain. Surgery went great. I am damn thirsty though! I hope everyone else is doing great as well.

Im praying for you to have a great recovery, my new me day is Thursday 21, so excited and scared all at the same time. Did you follow the liquid diet exactly???

New me!!! May 21

I had my surgery as well. So far some abdominal pain controlled with the pca pump. Only complaint is a very dry mouth. Walked 3 laps around the unit. Leak test tomorrow then hopefully home!

I'm not so lucky. I'm totally nauseous and dry heaving. :-( please pray it stops. Everything else is fine...

Will pray for you SlimJim! I had to be put on oxygen overnight as my level dropped into the 80s. Nurses here said it happens to most sleevers.

had surgery all is well. gas pain is terrible. bit still not as painful as i imagined.

Just had leak test and so far so good! Advice to others- sip it slowly and small sips

DeeJack: Im at the Marriott in Tijuana. Heading to Mi Doctor at 1:30 for surgery with Dr. Diaz. Getting tired of the wait. I expected surgery to be in the morning. Long time to be on Clear liquids and now nothing all day. Rough!! Feeling weak.

I kno. Had my surgery yesterday. Feeling a little sore but itz getting better. Did my leakage test n everything went well

Dee and Janet I'm jealous your in warm sunny Mexico. Its freezing rain and bone chilling here. <img src='http://www.bariatricpal.com/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

Lol. I can't get to enjoy the warm weather because I'm constantly dozing off. Lol

I am home!!! Feeling good, about to go for a short walk. I have not had to take any pain meds.

Janet I had it jn Towson maryland. I can't hold anything down amd the stomach pain is still there but mostly fro. Throwing up. How did. Everyone else make out

On my way home.about a two hr drive. Bumps in the road aren't feeling to great. Gas pains have subsided just sore incisions. I feel and look swollen so I think I'll wait to get on the scale next week when I see the dr. I have NO desire to put anything in my mouth not even water so I have to make myself...don't want to dehydrate!! Take care!

Guys I had a panic attack on the way to the hospital and therefore had to cancel but I am rescheduled for April 1. They have now given me meds for the panic attacks so I should be fine. I am keeping my fingers crossed. I am trying it today and so far its working.

Jenah, I am so sorry to hear that! I hope all goes well I am home and doing pretty good. Just drinking water and sipping some broth. I didn't desire anything but water the last two days so I knew I should do some broth. Starting out with 2oz. I'm not too sore, the drain is a major pain! Glad everyone else seems good.

Thanks Butterfly Gal I think I will be fine. Good luck with ur recovery.
