I thought I wasn't supposed to cry until after surgery.

You're going to do so great!!!! I cannot wait to hear from you!! What time is surgery??? I'll be praying!!

And yes, remember to walk, walk, walk....it'll push that gas out! Oh--and I had better luck with baby mylecon drops than the gas x strips. They made me nauseated, but of course at that point, everything was. :-)

Well I had a few problems post op. My drainage tube leaked and I had blood all over me. I had awefull nausea and finally figured outhat morphine and I are not compatible so we parted ways. Things are progressing better now. Up and walking. I am moving over to the post op board, but I will be checking in to see how the last of the gladiators fare.

Oh no, how scary. Imagine if you were home and that happened. Morphine doesn't agree with everyone. I am surprised but I have read so many posts of people saying they felt so much better after stopping taking it. Feel well my friend. I'm about to feel just like you surgery today at 2:30 pm

My surgery is 9 hours away. My last food in my old life has been eaten. It was Jello! I feel a wonderful sort of calm going into this procedure. My life will never be the same. I am so grateful to this group for all the support and help I have been given. My surgical date is 10/28. I know there are numerous people who are in the OR today. I wish us all luck, weight loss and healing. Thanks for everything.

If there was one thing about the "last day" I would have liked to know, it would have been that I put more energy into taking broth. I've had very little Protein, and I'm as hungry as can be. Push the broth on your Clear liquids day.

Yes me too my last was Water at midnight
