Wow! Things just got real. I have been scheduled to report to the hospital tomorrow at 11 am. I just received the phone call to confirm and now it's 6 a.m! I had planned such a leisurely morning to get ready and be there by 11. I am happy it is earlier, less being grumpy with no liquids after midnight. Getting excited!

Surgery went well. Had some internal bleeding last night that caused a good-sized hematoma on the right side of my belly. They gave me two bags of plasma and everything is looking better. Moved to a regular room today and they took away the morphine pump. We had to cut the pain pill in 4 pieces and take with jello. It was tough to get them down!

Any sleevers scheduled for July 30th?

I just got home and I am a little sore. The surgery went well. The staff at Norwood Hospital were fantastic. Once the Doc gave me the ok on my barium swallow test I GULPED ice water. The water came right back up it wasn't really gross or painful but it was unpleasant so please remember to sip that first cold drink of water.

I did a lot of walking on the floor and it really does help with the post surgery gas pains.

I had great plans I was going to make 3 or 4 shakes and get all my protein in today, I am rethinking that now my Doc even said to me "take it easy don't worry about getting all your protein and supplements in today" I think I am just going to sip water and see how I feel throughout the day.

Good health and best wishes to all

My surgery is Monday 7/27. This is day 7 of my clear liquid diet. I feel terrible and I'm starving. As of Monday I've lost 12lbs. I definitely feel lighter not having any food in my body but I also don't have any energy. I know this is all for a reason (to shrink my liver for surgery) and I'm glad I'm already losing but wow, I really underestimated how hard this would be. I'm nervously excited for my surgery. Less than 4 days to go!
