Tomorrow is the big day!!!

Well after 3 long years of waiting....my Lapband surgery is at hand. I have to be there at 8:30 in the morning! So excited I can hardly type. I want to say a special shout out to B and to let you know that I will wish you nothing but a speedy recovery. Be sure and warm Dr. B up real well for me and may both our surgerys go smooth as silk. MaseAnn, may your surgery go smooth as well! I look forward to being on the losing side very soon!!! I am thankful I found this board, you guys rock!!

I feel pretty good today. Just alot of soreness in my port area. So far I have handled water, broth and jello with no problem. I took liquid tylenol with no problem as well as the small pain pills that Dr. B gave me. I cut them in half and take one piece at a time. I even have managed to get one protein shake down.

LadySplenda, I had my surgery done at the Richardson Surgery Center. The staff there was awesome!

Dianne, yes I am sleeping in the recliner. I try everynight to sleep in the bed, but I always end up in the recliner. It works out to be more comfortable that way.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!! Let the journey begin!!

Take it easy and rest rest rest afterwards. Let your mind and body heal!!
