I finally was approved and have my date! April 1st is the big day! I’m so excited! Starting my preop diet today and I’m a bit nervous about it! Any advise! Foods & tips?

I'm also scheduled for April 22. Go for pre-op appointment next Tuesday, getting anxious! I feel like this will be the hardest thing I've done in life, but so rewarding. I've never had any kind of surgery, no kids, nothing. I learned with having my EGD that I did not like being the patient, lol! I'm usually at the hospital for my grandparents or parents. It felt so weird even being rolled around on the stretcher. ?

I read a quote recently that I'm keeping in mind for this process - "Nothing that lasts is accomplished quickly".

I've also created a vision board for the tough days just to help me keep my eye on my goals.

April 18th

How did it go? I hope all is well. Keep us updated when you get the chance.

It went pretty well. I was very nauseous after I woke up and was in some pain. The nausea went away after a couple of hours, no vomiting.

I’m getting morphine 4mg every two hours, toradol (anti inflammatory) and Tylenol through my iv. So, I’m feeling pretty good now.

I’ll be going for a walk soon. Hopefully, that goes well. I think it will. I’m still having a hard time believing that this has finally happened! Lol
