[DebbieG 262]

I just spoke to Hospital registration' date=' I have to be there are 9:45A in the morning. YIPPIE! I'm so excited. My challenge right now is I have to have Clear Liquids all day today until midnight. I have a headache and my stomach is growling and the veggie broth I have is disgusting. Other than that Yippie!!! [/quote']

Good luck ElleG!! Yaaay let us know how you are after surgery.

Best of Luck to those going in this week!!! I am 4 days post op and down 7 lbs! I had a rough two days at first with nausea plus getting my period right after but these past two days have been great. No hunger, no pain. So far my RNY has been worth it!

I wish you all a speedy and painless recovery!

HW 283. SW265. SD 3/22/13! CW 258.

11 days post op and I am down 14 pounds have not been getting in my Water or Protein. The UTI infection has caused me massive issues. Nausea and the runs like no tomorrow along with fever. Hoping things go better in the next few days this is rough.

Feeling so fortunate today. I went to my one week post op appointment and I am down 10 pounds. My surgeon said that I am doing wonderful and right where I should be. However, I also found out that my roommate, my surgeons first case of the day, had a heart attack and died last night. I am so sad for her family. I can't imagine the pain they must be going through. It just makes me realize that I am so glad I made this decision right now before I got to the point where it was dangerous to have the procedure done or that it was surgery or death. She was older and had a lot of co-morbidities but I am just torn up for her family right now. Her husband and I talked a lot during her stay, I just can't even imagine

I feel like a pin cousin. Had to have my original iv out and they have tried seven times so far to get another one started with no luck. They even used this really cool vein finding machine. I just took advantage of no machines to take a shower and it felt great!! I have to have my third Iron infusion tonight )0:

Well, tomorrow is my big day! My surgery is at 1 pm. I have been on pre-op liquid diet for 10 days and think I will be starving by then tomorrow (nothing to eat/drink past midnight). I'm getting very anxious and really just looking forward to getting it over with.

Had surgery 3/25 and have to say I'm doing ok. Stomach very sore and feel like a Mac truck ran over me several times! Have progressed to full liquids and so far so good. Haven't felt like eating and no hunger pains. Doc was going to send me home this evening but having issues with the insulin and sugars too high. Sure hope this resolves itself since that is why I had surgery in the first place. Had a shower and have been walking lots. Baby steps towards the new me!

5 days post op and I'm not hungry but I am feeling the hunger pains in my belly. Is this even possible? LOL

If you are talking about it grumbling then I know what you mean. Every time I put food into my belly, it gets so LOUD!!

I had issues in the hospital with my blood sugars but once I got home I have only had to treat them twice!!! Always under 150 running 114-125 actually. I love it!!!!
