Hello everyone! I wanted to go ahead and start an August surgery group. With everyone's date rolling in, I figured it was time! My surgery is August 2 and I am nervous and excited, but mostly ready to be done!!! How about everyone else?

Hey all! Sitting here waiting to be discharged. Had my surgery on Wednesday and it went well. Had a bad night last night due to gas pains and not being comfortable but feeling much better now and ready to go home.

I agree' date=' gas pain is really bad! Hope you'll feel better soon, I started feeling like a human being yesterday, 3 days after the surgery and even slept on my stomach last night. Good luck!![/quote']

Omg I can't believe you were able to sleep on your stomach. I can't barely sleep on my side.

Thanks so much I am surprised I don't see the weight loss but but numbers don't lie !!

Do you measurements too. You will be really surprised and happy seeing that too. I have a hard time seeing my loss too. I did my measurements the other day and that made me feel better.

Kinsse first I got what's called the Duodenal Switch which is a little more extensive then the gastric bypass. I also eat sugar free pudding and cream soups and also Greek yogurt. It's hard to get anything in really but I do. I also have alot of waters and alot of sugar free Popsicles I haven't really done much different I cannot wait will I can eat food tho! But you have lost 10lbs !! Congrats on that! My goal was to finally get under 300lbs! When I saw that I was 286 I cried I haven't been under 300 In a long time!

Ohh and your swelling could be worse than mine because I see how you have the lap the turned to open you could be alot more swollen and that where your weight is at too! But be proud you already lost 10lbs!!!

I love it!! Lol. One thing I noticed and don't laugh....my necklace I always wear is hanging lower!

So I just got back from the emergency room cause I was getting dehydrated and had a fever of 101. Also have a UTI and a partially collapsed lung. Had the IV fluid in for about 3 hours. Feeling a ton better and gotta keep up with liquids.

Oh no sorry to hear that. I am so glad you are feeling better. Take care of yourself.

Oh no, this sucks but it shows you how important the hydration is... I hope you feel better soon! Remember that you can do Popsicles and it will count for like 3-4 oz of water, depending on the size... Keeping my fingers crossed that it was first and last visit to ER! Take care!!!
