At this time tomorrow I will be a "SLEEVER"! I am filled with emotions..excited, nervous, my stomach is tied in knots! This forum has been a godsend and I am so thankful for all of you that have shared your stories and experiences. It is very helpful and is nice to know that people have been where I am going.

Hi everyone, I had a little hiccup during surgery. The hospital I went to ordered a smaller tip guide so during the surgery the doctor snipped the tip off. It took him an extra 45min to find it. Thank god it was in the cut out portion of my belly. Everything else has been great. I was up and walking the day of surgery doing lap after lap around my ward. I got to go home the next day. Just having a hard time getting enough fluids down. The doctor wants 13 cups of clear fluids per day. I walk laps around the house, drink as much as I can then nap. This is pretty much how it has been since I got home. Hope to be able to get more fluids in soon.

Glad you're home and doing well. Congrats! :)
