@@TakeitorSleeveit i bought this rocky shirt last year from walmart, it looked to be a large xxl, sadly it didnt fit at all, looked like i painted it on so its been sat waiting for the day to try it again, i was so happy as im a major rocky fanatic

My most worthwhile advice would be to walk, I was up and about after an hour of getting to my room, its the only relief from the gas pain I found. I was only in overnight but the staff was excellent and very helpful. I'm pretty sure walking every hour or so in the hospital helped the recovery be as easy as it has been.

Thanks everyone for your kind words :)

Cool I can do that. One more question for you Dan, how was your pre-op liquid, liver shrinking diet? Were you required to do 2 weeks like I've read on other post?

My 2 week pre-op was carnation Breakfast essentials no sugar added shakes 3 times a day which tasted great and 2 cafe steamer meals, I lost 16-17 lbs on the pre diet

You've been very helpful, THANK YOU.

@@EnglishDan Thanks for sharing! You have boosted my motivation. I'm on day 11 of my pre-op liquid diet. Between pre-pre-op dieting and the liquid diet I've lost a pleasant amount of weight. I have a hard time seeing it. I have noticed a change in the way my clothes fit though. Keep up the great work!

You look great!!! I lost 14 pounds in 3 days but can't see it so much like I can see it on you. Keep up the good work????
