Next Tuesday March 3rd can not wait so so so excited

Hi! Are you just over 30? (I'm 65 but technically over 30 also😁) If you are just over thirty than you are still young! You'll do well with this, get good results and your skin should snap back more easily than us -ahem- more mature folks...It's good that you are doing this at a younger age! It's TOTALLY normal that your emotions are all over the map right now. You are going into the unknown with a life changing decision. You'd have to be a rock NOT to be a bundle of emotions right now. Visit here often--you'll get lots of helpful info and emotional support. Keep us posted--YOU GOT THIS!!!!

I went into all the March threads and put everyone's dates together so that everyone could see their buddies! I will put this in the other March threads as well. If you are new or don't see your name, I will be more than happy to add it!

I was told I have metabolic bone disease . Has anyone ever had this after surgery? They did a cancer screening and it was negative now we have a bunch more tests to do . I’m so worried !!

Lol ... Why, thank you!

AJ, I am so sorry for your loss, they are family just like any other person. 😥

Thank you. I hope I'll be out again on Monday.

I started taking vitamins during my six-month supervised diet since my dietitian wanted me to get used to taking them (but I think it was just the multi she had me taking, now that I think of it...), but most surgeons, regardless of the surgery, will have you stop taking vitamins and any non-prescription meds a week or two before surgery. I had to stop taking them before both of my plastic surgery procedures, too - evidently some can thin the blood too much, which can interfere with the surgery. as for your anxiety meds (or any other prescription med), ask your doctor.

I would ask your doctor's office about the vitamins and the medications. Re; what I brought; A robe, earplugs and ear phones, phone and charger, e-reader, couple of magazines, eye mask, change of clothes with comfy yoga pants and an oversized sweater. Also I brought my own face cream, body cream and dry shampoo, of course toothbrush, hairbrush, etc. You can't take a shower for a few days, and the dry shampoo was nice to have. If you are staying in a hotel for a couple of days make sure you bring really comfortable stretchy pants, as the incision sites may be uncomfortable if anything is rubbing against them. Also, if you don't like certain kinds of protein drinks you may want to bring your own, but for the first few days you really need to hydrate more than worry about protein (as I learned the hard way when I got dehydrated!) I had surgery at 4:30 pm, got to my room around 7:30 pm and was up and walking the halls at 9:00 pm. The nurses really encourage you to get up and move to get the gas moving. I had blessedly little pain, so I did not take anything other than Tylenol and motrin after the recovery room. I'm sure if you are on heavier meds that may effect your mobility. Best of luck! Let us know how you are doing!

No you filled the tank to capacity and it is letting you know - You should be drinking them by the ounce not the glass, I suggest till you know your limits that you drink 2 oz every so often about 6 times a day You will get the hang of it - Slow down and take your time
