Have been thinking of everyone having surgery! Hoping all goes well :)

I just had an appointment with the cardiologist and he wants a stress test which is fine but its a 2 day test b/c of my weight and i'm am scheduled for surgery on Monday... AHHH... they could only fit me in on Friday after noon, and by doing the days backwards i'm doing part of it now. I hope the dr doesn't want to postpone my surgery!

Wow that's great Kurstin, what have you been doing so far and how much did you weigh at surgery time?

Hello everyone. Just wanted to give a quick update....I am doing awesome. Probably drank water too fast thing morning so I'm sitting in a chair and it feels better. My nurse today had the surgery back in October so it's nice she knows what I need. I'm a bit sore and only took my pain meds once this morning....they gave me that clotting shot and that stung so I took it :D I do wish everyone who is having surgery today a good and speedy recovery. I can't believe I am here but it feels great.

20 lbs is great!! :-) good for you. We all can't wait to join you. Are you hungry at all? Is it hard to get the Protein in? How does your stomach feel? Sorry all the questions. I'm too inquisitive sometimes. Lol

I know what you mean my mom doesn't come until Tuesday to be here for my surgery and I think my nerves are getting the best of me right now but I won't back down because I know this is what is best for me and my health

It's like the surgery day wasn't coming soon enough, but on the other hand now - its the countdown! Can't wait to wear a great pair of boots with skinny jeans and have my shirt tucked in with a belt. So many things I want to do!! I just hope I don't lose too much boobs! Sorry, just saying! TMI right?
