Anyone having surgery in Oct ?

I'm having my surgery Oct 5th my per op class is Sept 23rd. I'm getting super excited only thing that worries me is missing classes I just enrolled into two classes and they start the 14th I'll be missing 3 classes plus a whole week of surgery. Hoping my teachers will be okay and let me work it out so I don't fall behind or get knocked for missing class.

@@pyra28az please don't take it that way. We are the most welcoming group!!! We would love to have you be a part. I just want you to know that there is no advertisement here. We won't try to sell you anything. We are simply here to support each other. Stay, ask questions, become a part of the group!!!

@ I'm also 4 days out today and I want something soft so bad. Some canned tuna fish or scrambled eggs would be so great right now. Also it's really annoying making a full dinner for my 10yr old son who eats about as much as I do now and a separate shake/smoothie/broth for me.

Wow

I am confused on why you are saying wow. No one has been rude or said anything that should be taken with offense. There is also a sleeve forum for those looking for other support from sleevers.

I keep trying to get this thread -Preop Gastric Bypass forum back on track. If you read on Forum Rules #11 hijacking is referenced. This thread has been nothing but support.

I think this was all my fault...and I am truly sorry. I might have been having a bad moment from being stuck in this house for way too long. I will be way more careful in the future. Myself and Sleevinchica just love this group so much and did not want to see it get lost in the mix or breaking apart. It has been one of the biggest instruments in my recovery.

Does anybody ever feel like their insides are shifting when you lay down? I'm a stomach sleeper so I have to compromise with laying on my sides and when I move from sleeping on my side to my back it feels like everything is shifting.

@@julbel721 I'm actually 10 days post op but congrats on day 4, how are you doing? I still just want some chicken lol. But I'm really starting to feel like me again and that makes me so happy.

@@julbel721 I am a stomach sleeper too. I am feeling the shifts as well. And I seem to have this irrational fear that I am going to either tear open my inner staples or my outer incisions each time I roll over.

Also I don't take my pain meds but at night. I feel I cannot really rest without them. Does anyone else feel this way?
