Yeah. He'd freak out if I did that to him. I blame it on his age. At 22 he's still so self-absorbed. Lol

Surgery yesturday went well. Managing the pain passed all the post-op test and now on day two diet. On track to go home tomorrow. What do most post-op people do for Constipation?

Glad you're doing well. From what I've read, Miralax and stool softeners. A lot of people recommend Smooth Move tea. And when it's at its worst, milk of magnesia. The first 3 are usually approved for continued, long term usage.

Well all I think this is for real. Saw the surgeon for the consult today & I'm scheduled for 2/26/14. No pre-op testing or procedures need to be done. He is accepting all of that from 2 years ago. I'm going to be self-pay & get a discount for being a hospital employee. Start my pre-op diet tomorrow. YEAH! This is really really happening. I can't believe it.

So my pre-op diet is two Protein shakes a day (breakfast & lunch) then a sensible dinner. Protein & veggies. For now I have a chocolate Protein Powder my husband picked up @ GNC. It is on the list I got from the dr. For me this has happened so fast. I really enjoy chicken. So I will probably do chicken & steamed veggie or salad.

I really want some ice cream but I think I'm feeling so much right now I can't eat. Lol

????good luck to everyone about to be sleeved‼️

Congrats to all those in the first couple of days of recovery????????????????????

SarahJane and Jencovi, thanks for some of the best laughs I've had in ages. Go Xanax! I actually had some expired leftovers from a long time ago. I planned to take one the night before surgery but was afraid I'd oversleep (even though the potency would be reduced). I really wanted it once I got to the hospital but my amazingly calm husband calmed my nerves.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
