I made it to the Losers Bench!

Well I made it to the Loser's Bench!!! My surgery was yesterday morning! All went well. I ended up having a hernia repair as well. (I didn't even know that I had one!). Im still in a bit a pain, and am allowed to have ice chips. Man it feels weird to swallow! I can feel it the whole way down. I am so scared to swallow more today! My inscions look awesome! My doctor did a GREAT job!!!! My husband has been WONDERFUL, and hasn't left my side! He's a great "nurse"!. I am scared about swallowing anything today and am praying it all goes well! Thank you for all the positive thoughts and prayers!!! I also fond out I lost an official 18 pounds on my preop diet in 13 days!!!! Not to shabby!!!! :o)

Welcome to the Loser's Bench :D. I'm glad the surgery went well and you're lucky to have your husband by your side it's helpful to have support especially at the beginning.

Good luck in your journey and keep us updated. ;)
