12 more hours!

I have to be at the hospital at 5:15am. I can't believe It's only 12 hours away. I am so nervous but excited. The typical feelings everyone has at this point. My sisters graduation was today so the whole family is having a bbq. Its very hard to watch them eat a ton of my favorite foods. I just know that I'm doing the best thing for myself and my surgery tomorrow will be the best decision I ever made. I just want to fast forward. I hope everything goes well and to all others who have their surgery soon I send my prayers and best wishes to you! Good luck everyone :)

I finally had my surgery! At 7:30 this morning I was sleeved. At first I was in pain but not anymore. When I lay down I feel little to no pain. But when I stand up and walk or go to the bathroom thats a different story!! So far no complications and I've had some ice chips and a popsicle and those were fine. I'm nervous to try more things tomorrow. I believe I am going home tomorrow :) I hope everyones surgeries went well and all of you recover quickly. May god bless you all

I went home today at around 5pm. I took some liquid vicodin the doctor gave me and felt like throwing up. I haven't been gassy or naseous at all. Except when I drank that medicine. I'm having a very hard time getting in fluids!! I haven't gotten barely anything in. But I am walking frequently and doing my breathing exercises. Still painful when walking and getting up and down. The pillow I hold to my belly helps a lot tho. Especially when I go to get up. I've been sleeping for a few hours at a time and then get up. Wish I could sleep longer.
