I'm a week out from surgery. No remaining surgical pain, gas pain is minimal and brief, still some cramping from cold Water or when eating, but it's much less, goes away faster, and doesn't happen as often. Scheduled my checkup for this coming Monday, I'm assuming it'll be routine stuff. I went to the gym two days ago and did a mile on the treadmill, weighed myself beforehand, and I've already started losing weight! I'll update my profile tonight after I go to the gym again.

Easy to handle the vitamin/shake/meal routine, hard to make sure I get enough fluids. It was so much easier when I could just drink a pint of Water without thinking about pacing...

My surgery is tomorrow and every so so so very nervous and anxious.

@@FpJackelyn the diet is not as bad as I expected actually. Try to eat before you go to the party, and bring some flavored water or crystal light with you. You can do it!! Make it a mind over matter deal and put yourself first. Let me know how it goes!

That's awesome @@simplyblessed!! I wish mine was tomorrow, but I have another week to wait. *sigh*

I was Dec. 8th. I came home yesterday. Feeling good. Still in pain, but I am only using Tylenol to manage it. After tonight, I probably won't use anything. The hardest part post surgery is all this darn gas still inside me. My stomach is so distended. I have been trying to walk around as much as possible.

How are the Dec. 9th surgery patients feeling?

[Cindy's WL Roadtrip 9]

Hey Scifiguy. I'm glad to hear that you have no surgical pain and minimal gas pain. The gas pain is killing me. Did you think walking on the treadmill helped?

[scstxrn 213]

A total of 4 gasx strips and something that resembled dancing did the trick for me. Oh yeah... And zofran

[OmegaJay 29]

Good luck!!! Stay Positive it will all be fine!

My surgery is tomorrow and every so so so very nervous and anxious.

teamfattdenmom holiday party was tough! Im glad its over, haha. I did not cheat so I am very proud of myself. I had veggies and 4 oz of protein! For "dessert" I had strawberries and blue berries while everyone had ice cream and chocolate brownies and it didn't phase me as much as I thought it would.

Great job @@FpJackelyn!!! We have two parties on Saturday but I'm not sure if I'm going yet. Maybe for an hour each, just to make an appearance. I have a lot to do before next Wednesday. I had my pre-admission appt this morning, they took blood, urine, and money. Lol!! But everything is set for surgery next Thursday!!
