Well here we are already halfway through the month of October!!!

Best of luck tomorrow to @@shamel811 & @@howardnicole2012 & @@Onelife & @@WillieBradley & @@kvoneye

Sending prayers that everything will go well & the healing will be quick!

Mine is tomorrow! I'm having a lot of stinking thinking such as, what if they can't do it because my liver didn't shrink enough! That's the worst today. Hope I can get my work done today. I'm supposed to drink this stuff at 4pm. What would happen if I drink it at noon? I can't have anything to eat today other than clear liquid. .

@@kvoneye - Lol, I worried the same… Let's just say I was a big wine drinker before starting my 2 week pre op liquids… I kept thinking, "my poor liver may need more than just two weeks to dry out!", but post surgery my doctor told my husband that the surgery went perfectly and he had no problems whatsoever… even said, and I quote, "she has good insides", lol… Don't worry, you will be fine and best of luck for the surgery! :)

On my way!! Here we go! Thanks for the support!!

You've got this! :)

Surgery went really good. I'm just sleeping on and off right now, I have pain and nausea but the meds help a little. Hope everyone else is doing good

@@kvoneye I know its no fun, try to get some rest tonight! We will be thinking about you tomorrow!!

@@60&goin4it - thanks for the well wishes and prayers.

@@60&goin4it, thank you so much! How many post days are you? The gas pain is so bad, I can't even take a deep breath. I walk for hours. Still not done. Do you remember how long it took for it to be gone completely? This is the hardest part. Also getting the fluids in. I didn't come close to getting 48 oz today. I'll work harder tomorrow to get in my fluids. I've been sipping all day. I was getting in 3 oz an hour, but that's not enough. I'll take any suggestions you may have?

@@thbrown223 I'm 1 week today, & last night after a few days of nothing I still had some gas pain! I was so surprised, It was like every step I took it got worse, all in my stomach area. As I tried to relax, & finally went to bed I started letting off gas extremely,& feel better today. Had the best bowel movement so far today also. so I don't know if it was the surgery gas or just my intestines. You may be walking too much! Maybe you need to rest some. I would walk for 5-10 min. every hour on the hour after i finished my 5- 1oz water & protein, (2 protein drink 3 waters). I get 60 - 65 oz in a day 5oz x12hrs= 60 then I sip some plain water if i feel like it after my 12hr routine. Very boring. The gas pain should from surgery should ease every day but I think it can take up to a week. So sorry you are suffering! Are you able to stay sitting up some during the day? Can you elevate your upper body some while you sleep? That may help. I also got some gas x strips & took one at night before bed. Hope this helps!

2 day post op I woke up feeling better cause the day before I would throw up anything I'd drink. I tried jello for the 1st time and it made me feel so full my stomach feels real bloated and uncomfortable. What has helped yall with the bloated feeling?

My surgery went great according to the dr. I'm just sore and groggy. Never had anesthesia before or dilauded. Both made me dry heave and be very nauseous which was the worst part. Switched over to liquid hydro for pain meds now and they sit better. Just trying to get my water in.

Wow we have no one scheduled for tomorrow!

My preop was today. I am getting closer. Tomorrow is day 10 of preop diet!!!
