[Swhitton85 66]

Hello. I had my surgery yesterday @ 9:00am. Have been in quite a bit of pain since I woke up. They have been giving me diludad about every 2 hours. Seems to help pretty quickly but starts wearing off after about an hour & 30 min. I got up & started walking about 2 hours after I got in my room. Try to walk right after each pain shot b4 falling back asleep. I'll update u all soon. Going to try resting a lil bit xoxo

My nurse just said I prob. Won't have a bowel movemsnt for about a week. Pretty sure I won't have to have 1 b4 zoo lsace

My surgery is Next Wednesday and have been on the 3 Protein Shakes a day and 2 Lean Cuisines and all the non starchy vegies I can eat.. .. It seems to be going ok.

I know my body went thru a little bit of shock since my caloric intake dropped almost a 1000 calories a day. Cannot wait for the surgery.. A little nervous,, but also excited..

I know how you feel. This is going to be the longest two week of my life.

Okay, tomorrow morning is my date. Getting everything prepared. I stayed exactly to the liquid diet and I've lost 18 lbs in two weeks. It was not easy. I'm excited (sort of), a bit nervous, and I just want to get it over with. It has taken so long for me to get to this point. Glad for this forum. Best of luck to all of you.

Here's hoping that all of you awaiting surgery in April have easy pre-op diets, no stress, and feelings of excitement! I came home from the hospital today after surgery Monday, and I feel much better than I thought I would! I know I have a long way to go, but so far things have gone well. Praying for all of you as your dates arrive!

[gixxergirl 85]

I pray everything goes well.
