Today's My Day!

I'm scheduled to be at the hospital 6:00 this morning. I'm really nervous scared and having second thoughts. I pray this procedure will be the extra help I need to finally get back healthy again! Wish me luck! ????

Good luck!

Second thoughts are natural...I had them too. But it is worth it! Good luck and we'll see you soon! :)

Congrats and best wishes on your surgery day! You are going to love your new life!

Good luck and God bless! :)

I had mine on the 22nd as well, just got back home yesterday. I am adjusting to eating slowly and hardly at all. Pain is more severe at incision sights since I got home and only have pain pills every 6 hours or more. Excited to be done with the first month post op.

Thanks everyone for the encouragement! My procedure went well but my time in the hospital was terrible. My pain was through the roof and the hospital staff made everything worse. The treatment was so bad there I asked to come home the next night during a winter storm and I had a 4 hour drive to my house. Once I got home I started feeling much better. I'm getting my fluids in better and even walking more. I'm down 10lbs since my surgery date (1-22) and I'm excited to see where this new journey of my life will take me! Good luck everyone!!! We will make it and we will be successful! ????

I'm sending you all my support! It seems bad right now but your days will get better. Now that you are home I bet you will be feeling completely different in a day or two. Stay encouraged and remember your goals! ????
