Good for you!!!! Make sure you update us. It's so exciting. I can't wait to begin my journey as well. It's seems surreal. It's finally our month. In no time we are gonna be post op and losing !

The cut I am told is just under 5 inches and eliminates the air they have to pump you with. Also' date=' the in hospital time is only two days but still the usually two weeks at home. Congrats in your surgery.........we're you scared?[/quote']

I wasn't scared or nervous. I guess the whole thing was so surreal for me. When I woke up it was just a victory that no one could tell me I couldn't have the surgery anymore. Lol

Thanks. People have been telling me this happens. I've never had surgery before so I'm seriously new at this. So far I'm not so nervous as in excited to start a new me. I am so ready....I bought my food for the liquid food portion when I get home on Thursday. I will make sure to let everyone know how things are going. I've decided to bring my laptop so that I can have something to do on my down time even if it's watching a movie and taking a nap.

This was my first surgery too. So, I had no idea what to expect. All I can say is that it was extremely less painful than I could have imagined. I was so in and out of sleep I barely looked at my phone but a couple of updates on here. I suggest pack light and Def bring crystal light packets! It'll make your liquids much easier to take once they start allowing you liquids.

Ya I'll probably be here and there with the posts but I have no idea how I'll be. I'm there for 3 days and my friend who had it back in November said she kind of got bored in the evening on the second day. She said it was because of the tv...she wasn't used to not having a DVR LOL.

Best of luck to everyone having surgery today ill be praying for all of you :-)

Good luck to today's surgeries!! It's finally your day!! Yaaay!! Keep us all updated. We are a family, I love this May Surgeries forum. :-)

Thank you. I was able to get some good sleep last night & not as nervous as I thought I would be. Of course I haven't arrived at the hospital yet. I lost 35 pds as of this morning on the pre-op liquid diet and it wasn't that bad. Everyone will do great on theirs :)

I will post an update when I can.
