Well 24 hours from now I will be in surgery.. My surgery is set for 9:30 am tomorrow.... Can't wait !!!!

MommyD you got this we are going to have stories to share my friend lol are you nervouse yet I am calm but excited .

Best of luck to all this weeks surgeries. Tomorrow I'll be 1 week post op. Feeling pretty good. It's so bizarre to only eat 2 oz at a sitting but that is all my new stomach allows. I still have incision pulling and a little pain but it's totally under control. Good luck to this weeks group.

Not too far from me... I'm in Dallas.

You folks that have to be at the hospital early are sooooo lucky. My surgery isn't until 2:00 on Tuesday! I'm going to be going crazy.

Hi Patticakes my surgeon is Dr Harnish at Ft Sam Houston Hospital. I've been on a liquid diet almost 2 full weeks, the day of surgery will be 2 weeks. I've been faithful and haven't cheated on the restrictions. I've dropped 15 # as of yesterday. It hasn't been easy, at times extremely difficult but I figured if I cheat on the diet, I cheat myself. How about you? Where are you from?

It is very exciting but also understandably scary. For years now I have had to endure so many challenges. I was molested as a child (that's when I started getting a bit chubby) then my first husband was killed right before my very eyes and lastly I had severe post-partum depression. I have been working so so hard internally for many years. I have been blessed to be able go share my story and help others. Now it's time for the external me. When I think about it, one word comes to mind, RESTORATION. How about you guys?

I like that word... Restoration I look forward to New Beginnings!! I'm going to be a grandmother the end of July and want to be around to see him grow up. We have some things in common.

Mtwtv71 thanks and congrats on your surgery success I'm glad your doing great any tips you have the night before surgery?

Relax and enjoy you night with family. I had a Cathadetation so never was able to wear any of the stuff I brought to the hospital. I highly recommend Chapstick. My lips were so dry afterward. Good luck tomorrow.

Mtwtv71 thanks and I will, going yo watch Games of Thrown shower with that special antibacterial soap and go to bed , so I can be up at 4:00 am to get to the hospital on time thanks again.

Hi all, I'm post op 4 days. Doing well with my liquids all though I feel very full all the time. Feel just a bit sore when I use my abdominal muscles for something. I ended up with 6 incisions. No nausea, only taking pain meds at night to help me sleep. Up to 20 min in walking about 3 times a day. Cooked a spaghetti meal today including biscuits for my family. Was a little hard but I did it and sat there sipping my broth. Feel a little down today but think I need to get out of the house for a while.

Keep it up mlsaenz, come here we will support you. Don't get down, be strong!
