March 14th at Mi Doctor!

So ready to get this show on the road. I should've been about 3 weeks out already, but a major snow storm crushed that dream! Anyway, it looks like mother nature is cooperating this week and things will be clear to fly on Wednesday. So nervous. Excited. Today is my last day at work until the 25th and I feel so rushed to get things done. I have a full day of appointments and errands tomorrow as well. How are all the other sleevers for this week feeling???

I made it into Tijuana safe and sound. Once I got off the plane in San Diego, I just called Victor to pick me up. He made it very easy to find each other and was very sweet and talkative.

Victor took me to the hotel, Pueblo Amigo which is very nice. The casino is right outside my door, but I brought ear plugs. Victor told me that Nissi will meet or call me later to give me details about tomorrow.

As soon as I checked in, I found the workout room with a scale. It was in kg's, but I just converted it into pounds when I got back in my room. At this point, I'm still 1lb over, but I generally weigh less in the mornings, so this does not surprise me. As it stands, I should probably slide right in at the 48.8 BMI mark to save that $1,000.

I've been up and down all night. Nissi is supposed to pick me up from the hotel around 7:40 (EST). I requested to go first and gave her my reasonin for doing so (extended liquid diet). She said she will ask the doctor. I'm very nervous and have been praying a lot this morning.

I am praying for you. I will be having mine in Saturday and I am terrified

I am sure everything will be alright. Please let us know how you are doing.

Sincerely,

Tracy

Dear Jesus, Help her to have a succesful operation and help her to make a complete recovery.

Amen, :rolleyes:

Praying for you!!!! Can't wait to read your update

sleeved will write more tomorrow

Hope you are feeling well!

Rest and walk and sip and please update us when you feel up to it.

Congratulations!!

Glad you're ok Jeni.. We were waiting and waiting and kept checking your room for you to come back from surgery Finally the Mom next door went down stairs to look for you and discovered you had been moved to the 3rd floor!

Ugh! I know. I was up walking and tried to come upstairs to see you and Nicole, but they won't let me. They were worried if anything were to happen to me. Understandable. How are you feeling?

Lol, they wouldn't let us go down stairs either! I had to stay on my teeny tiny little floor. I'm feeling SO MUCH BETTER today without any nausea or internal pain.. only some slight discomfort from the incisions. Dr Louisiana took out my drain today and that helped a lot. I'm at the Marriott now and I'm resting comfortably. no pain except gas! (not gas from surgery but the actual gas in my stomach and intestine.. I am LOVING the gas-x strips)

I'm sooooo happy we're both on the other side of this now and we BOTH made our preop goals. let me just take a moment to say "WE ROCK"
