I do have the medicine... but I think I was wrong yesterday today is the night before the night before... ha ha...can't keep myself straight... I did real good on the diet I didn't cheat at all. Tomorrow I go in for my mammogram and my yearly.. they were just about due and I was able to get them scheduled for the day before surgery. did not think the mammogram would be too comfortable to do afterwards....then I am going to go get my hair done and a pedicure... then pick my sons early from school so I can start drinking the lovely medicine... I figured no way was I going to be waiting for the kids away from the house and then oh man where is a bathroom.... I wish everyone this week the best of luck and hopefully we all come thru this with all of our dreams just starting to be realized.

That's funny! Until like Friday I was sure my surgery was Wednesday (but still the 26th) every time my husband I even talked about planning for the week we wound up hugely frustrated and annoyed with each other.

I am due at Admitting at 9:30 tomorrow morning. I'm scheduled for 11:45 but I imagine since I'm not first up it could be almost anytime in early afternoon.

I am generally pretty OK with the surgery itself. I only had to liquid diet yesterday and today and yesterday morning my slight hunger and excitement were making lovely butterflies in my stomach and I felt almost high. Then the PEG 3350 (or "poop" medicine) sort of ruined that! Now I keep having waves of "This is crazy!" but still no worries over the surgery itself which is either confidence or lack of insight. Eh, I'll take it.

wow, I just can't imagine how I'm going to feel the night before. I'm scheduled at 11:30am, 2nd Case. You have my prayers. Can't wait to read your updates.

Thanks for well wishes. All went well! I just had my first walk around. ( weird, I had to ask! A few times.). I was pretty miserable on my back not able to move.

Yeah the best parts so far have been being able to walk to the bathroom but hurts like hell when I get up or sit down. My surgery went well though. I'm sad I can't drink anything until I get out of the hospital tomorrow

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
