Surgery tomorrow!

First off, I am excited and nervous that its happening, I mean where did the time go? I am trying to pack everything I would need and leave the things I won't. My biggest worry is getting my water in and soreness. I have to be at the hospital by 730 am and my surgery is suppose to start at 930 am. I already had my gallbladder taken out but this feels like its on a whole other level. I just can't wait to see how this is going to change my life for the better!

Praying all goes well.

Good luck on your surgery and check back with us when you are on the other side and let us know how it went.

I'll say a prayer for you. I'm so jelly!

So I had my surgery and got released today. It was as bad as I thought, the gas pain in my leg is awful! The doctor said he could only do the sleeve portion and couldn't do the reroute of the intestines, something about the instruments were bending. I had to spend two days in the hospital and I was going stir crazy. Right now i'm walking and I even showered today which felt great. So i'll see how everything goes.

Wow, so are they going to do another surgery later or that is that? Oh definitely everything feels great after a shower. Hope everything works out?

I'm so happy that it's over now. I'm very excited for you. God bless.
