Tomorrow Is The Day!

[MASSGUY 51]

Well tomorrow, 12/2 is my surgery. I am not nervous yet, but I'm sure I won't sleep tonight. I didn't have it as tough as some others and had no pre-op diet. However, I will have a drain and a catheter. I maybe would have preferred the pre-op diet instead.

I want to thank all the "veterans" on here for all your posts on various topics. Your posts have convinced me I can do it. Thanks to Laura-Ven, RJ's Beginning, Lipstick Lady, Gamer Girl, Butterthebean, Madame Reverie, Fiddleman and many others whose names I have forgotten. We didn't necessarily share any threads together, but always found your threads and answers interesting and your willingness to always answer questions about the 3 week stalls like it's the first time you heard it asked.

I will hopefully see you tomorrow on the loser's bench and Good Luck to all the other 12/2 sleevers as well!

I'm 2 weeks behind you on the 16th. I hope everything goes super smooth for you! Look forward to hearing how everything goes for you.

woo hoo!! Start of a new life tomorrow for you! Do update the is thread so we know how you're doing and if you haven't already heard this a hundred times, let me be the first to repeat it for the 101st....

• walk, walk walk
• focus on drinking Water, don't worry about the Protein at first. do not get dehydrated
• remember the way you feel the first few days is not how it's always going to be.
• rest up! it may not feel like major surgery but it is so be kind to yourself

Very best of luck to you.

Terrific. You're never going to regret your decision to change your life. Congratulations. Let us know how it goes.

By the way, I had drains and a catheter after my tummy tech surgery. They are not as bad as they seem.

Thinking of you this morning

I hope that in the coming days we will share threads and get to know each other.

Good luck today! I hope you come out of it thinking it wasn't nearly as bad as you thought!

[Stacy_wls 135]

Good Luck! I hope everything is going well.

I'm a bit jealous sitting here suffering through my pre-op diet. I can't wait to be on the recovering side of this.

Hi

I came home yesterday. The pain was more than I expected but it is all worth it. I showered today and went out to do some errands. I'm still taking pain meds at night as I can't get comfortable. I never was a back sleeper. Thanks agin for all the best wishes.
