My date is march 17. Can't wait !!

Surgery Monday. I live in a small community so I'm in Anchorage where I am having surgery staying in a hotel. I wish I could be in my own bed with the comforts of my own home. I slept a little bit tonight with my 9 year old by my side. I'm nervous. I'm all she has which is a big part of why I am doing this whole thing but getting scared because should something happen I'm all she has. <br>

I'm sure things will be just fine but I have had complications with surgeries in the past and that thought lingers in the back of my mind. I would love to spring forward one month instead of one hour tonight just to get to the "rest of my life" part. (Also to miss tomorrow's bowel prep day. )

Good luck with your surgery! I'm sure you'll do great. I am also a single mommy, having surgery on Wednesday. I have the same worries. Just think of how much more we'll get to do with out munchkins when we are at a healthier weight. Keep us posted!

I don't know if you are a religious person, but I hope you appreciate that you're in my prayers. Everything is gonna be great. And since I'm on Monday too, I'll let ya know how mine went. We got this LOL

Just read through and caught up on every body and how they are doing post op! Glad to see mostly good news! I start my preop diet in two days and still don't have insurance approval! We are in Europe on vacation so this is a sacrifice that will test me, but it's worth it! If we don't get approval next week I will freak out!

I appreciate the fact I'm in your prayers! I do have a strong faith. I've been saying plenty those of us having surgery Monday (I met the person ahead of me on the schedule so now there is three of us), my daughter and many here in these forums. We do have this. I'm sure my first post will be drug induced so I apologize in advance for how jumbled it will be. LolThank you.

Has anyone had to do the miralax with Gatorade or crystal light?

LOL looking forward to the after surgery posts.

I slept in my bed, used extra pillows. Kingsize or body pillow to use as protection I hugged onto it slept comfortable.

still having trouble figuring out this forum on my iPad, but this post I was referring to the post about sleeping at home after surgery.

Hi Cookies, how r u feeling? We r almost a week out? Have u weight yourself?

Ummmmm I have no idea how I add to ur Comment cookies sry

Has anyone had to do the miralax with Gatorade or crystal light?

I did but it was after being on a liquid diet for a week so it wasn't bad.

Woke up with a runny nose, itchy eyes and a cough...I think it's bad allergies and scheduled for surgery on Tuesday. I'm seeing the Dr tomorrow...I have a feeling I'm getting rescheduled. So bummed!!!
