Awesomeness!

Hi everyone,

I finally had my surgery on friday 6-7! It has been better than expected! I'm moving around, trying to get my Water & Protein in & I never thought that burping, coughing, dry heaving & farting would be so AWESOME! I knew what to expect so nothing really was shocking!

For ALL the pre-op people.....Please don't hesitate or be afraid, just keep reading this forum, it really was so helpful!

Thank you to everyone for the great advice & support! Now I must go choke down some low sodium chicken broth... ;)

-Molly

      I am Pre-op and this is a very great mental approach to take going in, I will do it just as you have. I have to remember COMFORT IS A WANT NOT A NEED. Managing my new weight loss will be my need.
