October Surgery Date

  • Popular Post

Hi everyone!

Just came back from doctor's office and have a October 28th surgery date for Gastric Bypass. This is it, the high diving platform. Knees are trembling.

Anyone else in October? Let's keep in touch as we support each other. We have the pre-op diet and getting mentally ready for this.

LET'S DO IT!

11 days post op and I feel like actual hunger is starting. I hear it can happen before you go on more dense diet. Head hunger is here full swing. No pain meds in over 24 hours, can't wait until Thursday when I'll be able to taste something more than broth, Popsicles, and creamy soups.

Ugh, I just found out we are having an ice cream social on Wednesday in our office. That just figures. Please give me strength!

And I'm not really a sweets person...I don't know why it is bothering me.

It's probably a food funeral for you. After surgery you may never get to eat ice cream again (depending on if you dump and what you dump on), your subconscious knows this so you're being bothered by it. Hang in there!

My 16 month old is mean. Ever since surgery he has been extra busy and picking on me. Always climbing on me, sitting by me wiggling. I feel like a football player guarding a ball, like I have to do with my stomach around him. I can't wait to be fully healed.

When you are typing a reply, there is a little camera pic. I just clicked on that and took a pic of it. :)

So you are posting from your phone I assume? When I try and post from my phone I don't get a little camera. Darn. I was trying to figure that out before I go to surgery so I can post pics, LOL. I'll do some more checking, maybe it's on there somewhere I'm just not seeing. Do you have an iphone?

-$^ let's see if this worked...

LOL---Nope, that didn't work! Darn it!

I have android but when I'm typing there is a section on the side with a plus in a circle. I click that and another page shows for pics. I hit that.

Yes I have an iPhone. Here is a screenshot of what I see when I'm typing. post-235723-14132177609129_thumb.jpg

The camera icon on the left is where you can take a picture. The 2nd one is where you can insert a pic from your file. :) hope that helps!

See, also when I hit the plus sign, another little page shows up with 3 squares at the top. It says attach picture.

Maybe if I turn the phone, lol. Sorry, I'll quit posting pics now! Heehee.
