Although, still a little tired, can't sleep! I am encouraged by the many success stories. No regrets!

My surgery was 8/6, today I almost went out and mowed the lawn! Lol what a difference a day makes . All external incisions healed except for one stubborn one! I set my phone every 2 hours, I am either eating or drinking. Part of my beginning issues was I would fall asleep and lose track of time. Journaling is helping too.

Sleep well! Will pray that all goes well! See you on the other side. Remember :small sips of water very important! Sugar free Popsicles helped in the beginning too!

I am on the other coast of Florida near Tampa. Sleeve scheduled for 8/6. I start preop diet tomorrow. How soon did you guys get back to work after surgery- I know everyone is different. Just trying to get an estimate, I am taking ten days off. Not sure if is enough time.
