I had surgery the 8th. I thought i would be getting around a little better, but there is this one part of my stomach, maybe where the hernia was, that is still killing me! I try walking, but can't make it too far because of the pain. One step at a time I know. Everything else is going great though.

Oh Good Luck, excited for you. I will right behind you Tuesday. And my back is the same way. Are you nervous??

Good luck to you too! I hope it goes well. I am nervous and a bit scared too. My hubby had his surgery in May and I just hope mine goes as well as his did. (I thought I responded earlier but I’m not seeing it so excuse me if this is a duplicate post).

Just stopping in to wish everyone having surgery with me tomorrow the best of luck. Hope everything goes well for you’ll. See you guys on the other side.

Prayers to all having surgery tomorrow!

And on Tuesday we will be thinking of YOU! Are you in West Virginia yet? That will make YOU that much closer to ME!

Haha. Still in Georgia near Savannah. Your time is soon now!!!

Just wanted to post some encouragement for everyone starting the preop diet. I’m on day 10 and I promise it does get better. I’m still hungry but I don’t have headaches and feel crappy. My surgery is in 5 days so that is motivation to stay strong! Good luck to everyone in surgery today!
5 days makes it 8/13, correct? That's my day. Ball of confidence!! Lol

After many last-minute hurdles to jump through the last few weeks (as late as Friday there was still uncertainty - I discovered on Thursday I had to have a CPAP machine at the hospital - so I had one day (Friday) to acquire one. Also PCP only cleared me for surgery last Wednesday (had to get cardiac clearance after a last minute echocardiogram) - surgery is a go for tomorrow - fingers crossed! I'll try to post updates...
Heyyy surgery buddy!!! Can you beleive tomorrow is the DAY?!!!

Well, tomorrow’s the big day!
RNY bypass first thing in the morning
Today is day three of my liquid diet. It’s not as bad as I thought it would be. I’m not hungry, I just want to chew something and Jello just doesn’t cut it.
I was planning on sleeping the day away so tomorrow would come and I could just get this over with, but my back just isn’t going to let that happen. So, I guess I’ll try and keep busy.
Heyyy surgery buddy!!! Tomorrow is our big day!!! Can you believe it??
