the only thing that's a little pain but more uncomfortable is the hole where he pulled out my gallbladder. it was full of stones and infected so it was hard to get out. My surgeon said that is not common. but everything else feels pretty good.

My preop was today. I was there about 3 hours! I finally found sugar free popsicles. Looks like I'm all set :)

I am june 23rd! I am day 4 of pre op liquid diet! Getting nervous!

Would anyone be interested in starting a little exchange. We could do a pen pal thing and send a small package to someone else who is pre or post op to brighten the mood? A friend of mine did this and she said it was such an awesome feeling to talk to someone in the same boat who knew what she was going through. post here or shoot me a message if you are interested!

It's to late for me since I am tomorrow. We care on Facebook now though too.. A lot easier to talk there!

      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!!
