Surgery was yesterday. I just got home. :-). Everything went really well! Lost 29.7 lbs on the liquid diet. My dr said had not been so faithful on the diet, he would not have been able to do the surgery as my liver was still enlarged! He had to make a couple extra cuts, I have 8. But the only pain medication I had was for the 2 hr trip home. I had to walk 20 laps (which equaled 2 miles) before I could go home. I'm also an a clear liquid diet till my follow up with him a week from today. So thankful for all of your prayers and encouragement! So glad to be on the losers bench!!

Good grief! They made you walk 2 miles before you could go home? I'd still be there (mine was on Jul 16th)!

Glad to hear that you are home and doing well. Keep me posted on your recovery!

Good to hear that you are doing good.. hope you have a speedy recovery..

I was thinking the same thing as marfar! great to hear you are doing well....keep us posted

How long we're you on the liquid diet? That's a lot to lose!! Good for you!

I was on it 2.5 weeks. I was pretty proud of my progress. :-).

You didn't get any pain meds for at home? How are you doing? I'm over a week out and still taking my pain meds because my incisions still hurt. Bless you for your strength!

What was your BMI (before or at surgery time)? Where did you have your surgery done? Glad you are doing so well! My surgery is tomorrow. Eeeek.

Welcome to the loser side.
