Hello from a newbie...
The Candidate replied to Julia Sanchez's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
I'm so sorry to hear of your husband's loss. The emotional upheaval from that alone is overwhelmingly traumatic. But as you said he wanted you to be healthy, and you need to be healthy for yourself most of all. I hope the road ahead is smoother. Best of luck on your journey! -

The Candidate replied to The Candidate's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Thanks guys! Feeling better. Everyday is improvement. Only 4:30am but just so much time you can stay in bed without going stir crazy, so went walking. Hope my doctor gets here no later than 9 am and releases me, so I can detach myself from IV, drain, and pain pump. It was tough, but absolutely no regrets. Ready to start my new healthy life! ???? -

It's hard to get in and out of bed but having no problem walking. It hurts when I breathe though and on front left side under ribs. Took gasx seems a bit better. They let me take a shower and that was the best! Doctor says I should be able to go home tomorrow. Very tired. Thanks @@dbfn! -

I'm official...lots of dates added to the calendar

I tell you what helped me with the waiting was getting an old fashioned paper calendar and then crossing off each day as it passed. Just a little psychological boost. Congrats! -

The Candidate replied to John Michaels's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
My throat didn't hurt from the anesthesia tube, but it was dry and scratchy from not being allowed water for the first day. -
