Besides your own toiletries (if you chose not to use the hospitals) gas x strips, Biotene mouth spray (for dry mouth) ear plugs, sleep mask, Chapstick,fem wipes, comfy sleep clothes and socks, I took a small extension cord for my phone, iPad ect... And a glad plug in because I hate the smell of a hospital! (I had a private room). @@melva66 That's all I can think of right now.

Hang in there!

@@brandy31 One week!

@@yungshi I'm the same way. I make myself eat. My surgeon was not thrilled that I was only consuming 600 calls a day so he want me to get at least 1000 or else weight loss will more than likely stop (due to starvation mode) Keep working on it!

Well dang it looks like you already answered your own question! You know everything your doing wrong.

Happy NY! My "fun" was watching my husband drool on himself at (9:00pm) while my 5yr old son and I had a photo shoot spread featuring his face on fb! Woot woot talk about fun!! My goal (inspiration) is to drop a lot of weight by summer so I can at least get these pasty white legs out In the sun after being MIA for 15 years. My regret is being hardheaded in the gym and not learning that after you've been on a treadmill for 45 mins just because a "fit" girl gets on a treadmill beside you doesn't mean it's a "Instant competition" and you have to make damn sure she gets off her treadmill first (thus sparking the inside "that's what I though B fist pump" ) my Legs hurt!! Waaaah!

@@kikicoates78 Oh! Your a bad, bad girl too!!!

@@pinkbunies Lol! We are just bad! Goals my friend....goals!

You're welcome!

@@Kaela Winning Congratulations on a date!

@@pinkbunies Oh and congrats on killing the "you will explode if you drink a carbonated beverage" myth!

Oh I screw with everybody I just don't order anything to eat...and if my hair starts falling out with my weigh loss I'm sure to get sad face's and pampered because I'm almost positive people will assume I have some terminal disease. I shall set up a fund and use the money for plastic surgery! Suckas!!! Believe that! -

@@jbrooks_rn I hear yA! My pre-op was two weeks and I could only have 3-4 protein shakes a day, sugar free jello, sugar free popsicles, and broth. That's it. I never ever cheated but it took a LOT of willpower at times. Good thing about it is once it's over you will forget about it! Just keep the ultimate goal in mind. Good luck!

@@Sassafrassa My skin is doing ok thus far but I've only lost about 36 lbs (I'm only two months out) I'm 34. I still have a Ways to go so just like anything with this surgery only time will tell.

@ Ok so was your surgery today? If it was do you still have an IV going? If you have an IV you Are also getting fluids that way, if not you defiantly need to get some more fluids in. Just take your time don't rush it but take continuous baby sips . Time them if you need to but stay on top of that fluid. Of course if you start to feel sick take a break. Good luck!

@@pinkbunies Well sounds like you enjoyed that! Guess I'll hold off on the vodka and cranberry juice until I can be in a social setting that way I'm sure to make a complete ass of myself and it will be just like old times, nobody will know I had surgery! Since I can't eat in front of people without them asking questions. Now I will just drink! (I'm totally kidding...sorta)Happy New Years!!

@@brokenangel84 I like the guys room to apparently but they won't let me in to play : (

@@jbrooks_rn Well that sounds miserable! There where times in my pre-op I just had to take some zzzzquil to sleep, it also kept me from being up all hours of the night hungry!

Mine never where covered. I had staples though, do you have staples? The only thing I changed was the dressing on my my JP drain site. @@hdd55146

@@LipstickLady Lucky!

Oh my goodness ! Did I mention my own name in that last post! Holy crap and I'm not even drinking! Wow, just wow!

Protein and low carb!

Happy NY!

Sorry I don't know how I put your name on there twice...I guess I really wanted you to get that lol!

@@taniamatts It could be either one! Some people do still feel hunger after the surgery. Are you taking a Acid blocker? @@taniamatts
