Anyone Else June 5?

Time to start counting down!!! Getting more nervous everyday!!! I feel a little over whelmed, been looking over all my papers from Dr. and trying to get a menu planned for a couple of days after surgery. Dont want to have to worry about it when I'm tired and trying to get fluids in and walking!!! God bless everyone hope you all well in your journey!!!

    I'm also thoroughly sick of this clear liquid diet- but another week of full liquids! I want real food- but at 5 days post-op I've lost 10 pounds- day of surgery (6/7) I was 250 today I weighed 240.

My starting weight before preop diet was 275lbs. But this is my 2nd surgery. 16 years ago my start weight was 425lbs. I had been sick and found out that my problems were caused by a fistula (an opening in my staples) I had to have my stomach removed and had to have new stomach about 4oz. I seem to be loosing more but recovery is so slow for me. Having swelling and only one bowel movement.

I am all set for tomorrow June 6th. Have to be at the hospital by 10:15 am. Wish it was earlier. Drinking all day today and jello, would really like real food.

I'm scheduled for tomorrow too. I'm nervous a heck. I was fine today until I realized what the date was.

Good luck to all of you. I am 3 weeks post op from gastric bypass. It has been hard. I know I am getting stronger everyday. I was in the hospital five days. I was having issues with nausea and vomiting that was likely anesthesia and pain medicine related. My advice would be to speak up and ask for what you need. You are not bothering the nurses. It is their job to take care of you. If you are having issues then they will get you approved to stay longer through insurance.
