Sept. 8th & 9th Gastric Bypass surgery.

[angelicHG7 118]

Nice list.... Very similar to mine. I am wearing a dress home because in afraid to have anything around my stomach.

I hope I don't forget to take my before pic.

Do you know if you get your own room in the hospital? I have never had to share a room before.... So that might be interesting.

Yea, Im wearing a dress home as well, But I chose tops and bottoms at the hospital because I just wouldn't feel right with a gown.

And from what the nurses and surgeon told me I won't have to share a room with anyone while I'm there Thank GOD!!!

And I'm letting my hubby take a picture of me that morning before I leave for the hospital.

I have to be there at 8:30am sharp but I dont have surgery until 10:30am I just hope I have a good nurse that knows what she's doing when It comes to putting In my IV.

[angelicHG7 118]

Oh I know.... That IV is the worst and I can tolerate a lot. The last time I was in the hospital it left my arm black and blue.

You are lucky you don't have to share a room.... Fingers crossed that I won't either.

I bet it will be more comfortable walking around in pants vs. a gown anyway. I can't believe this day is half over....

Are you guys ready for this?

Hi.... Glad you found us.

I figured more ppl would look as it got closer to the start of the diet too.... We are gonna need this support.

Have any of you gone to a local support group yet?

[angelicHG7 118]

It is officially the 1st!!!!! One more week to go. Let the drinking BEGIN!

[bebeandkoko 34]

I am doing great, just kinda freaking out that surgery is in a week! Lol

My countdown app just went off to remind that my diet has officially began. Honestly, I'm kinda relieved that I'm down eating for a while. I've pigged out so much since I got my date, I feel permanently full haha

Angelic, I haven't been to any support groups yet but I'm thinking about maybe joining one when I'm a couple months post op. My mom had the surgery about 7 years ago and has totally rocked it so I'm going to look to her for a lot of advice. What about you, have you joined any support groups?

[msspiceybaby 58]

I am looking forward to not taking insulin, and checking my blood sugar. People may think its strange but I forget I have diabetes sometimes. And I have pressure on my nerves in my back. That never (constantly hurting) ending pain. But three cheers for us. I'll be joining all of you in a month Good Luck and a speedy recovery to all.

We'll be saving a place for you on the losers bench! I'm so excited for the pain to end too. I'm only 22 but all the weight is finally catching up to me with aches and pains. You'll be off insulin and feeling good in no time! Make sure to keep in touch with us (:

[msspiceybaby 58]

Thanks and I will keep in touch. Keep my spot warm on the losers bench.
