    Overall Negative

    @@jescoto86 I know in South Dakota they send you to a therapist before they send into insurance for approval. Try giving yourself positive affirmations instead of focusing on stinking thinking. I'm here for you if you need someone one to talk to. This is a great group and everyone here has been a great support. You can do this.

    October List of Surgery's

    @@thbrown223 glad things are going well for you. I too get winded when I walk too fast or too much. I found going up stairs to bed is having me feel like I ran a marathon.

    is that good?

    @@Miss Jessica, they want you to lose weight before surgery in order to shrink your liver. It makes it easier for the dr to do what he needs to. Good luck.
  4. How exciting for you! it will be here before you know it.
  5. I think I found you on instagram and sent you a request. My name is kvoneye39
  6. I go back to work a week from today. I bought little food containers to pack my lunch. By the time I go back I'm hoping to be able to add egg salad and tuna salad along with cottage cheese and apple sauce. My co workers know what I had done and I don't think they understand that I'm still me,just can't eat what they are eating at this time.

    @@Mildred Cox. How exciting!
  8. @@miiasan my scale said the same thing when I got home. I about flipped,then I was told it was from the extra fluid. I'm down 4 pounds since surgery a week ago. Good luck for a smooth recovery.
  9. @@TristanNicole I stopped taking the liquid pain medication before I went home. Couldn't stand the taste,but once the gas started moving, the pain was bearable. I'm one week post op today and the pain gets better and better. Im looking forward to next Thursday when I go back for my 2 week check up and hopefully can add more foods. Good luck to you.
  10. I just came from Cherry Berry and got the skinny vanilla. Low fat and sugar. Boy was it good. So far so good.
  11. You guys are great. When I was in the hospital last week I asked my husband if he wanted to have a farting contest. He started farting and said "you're turn" I sent him to Walmart. Lol
  12. I eat cream soups, sugar free jello, pudding,malt o meal, shakes, etc.
  13. I've got glue on mine and was told to leave them alone. Got more pain on right side,I'm guessing that is the side they put the stapler in.
  14. @@edie091371 I hope so. At times I've thought about this being a big mistake I can't take back. I put a roast with all the fixings because my son will be over for lunch, and I'm crying on the inside because I know I won't be enjoying that. I try to tell myself, down the road I will be able to try it again to see if it agrees or not. Guess today is not such a good day. Sorry for being a debby downer. Hope you get to feeling better soon.
  15. Today I feel blah. Almost 1 week since surgery. My weight today is down to surgery weight. I'm having a hard time with protein and I'm tired of sipping. Help.

    Emotional issues

    I had those feelings of, am I doing the right thing, is this what I truly want to do? I then did some self reflecting and reminded myself why I was doing this. Even after the surgery I asked myself if it was the right thing to do, and again I did the same thing. My answer always went back to yes. Be sure to talk to your dr and your support system as they too can help. Good luck
  17. @@TristanNicole good luck and keep us posted.

    Hello All

    Hello Brian and welcome! This is a great grp to ask questions, vent,and get encouragement. I am 4 days post op and am waiting for my energy to return, but I know I will get there. Best of luck to you.
  19. I had surgery last Thursday and I already asked abt foods for my bday Dec 3. I was told I'd be eating mashed potatoes and soft meats and veg.I'm on stage 2 until I see the dr Oct 29. This morning the scale was up 5pds compared to surgery day. Wth.
  20. I've been drinking chocolate milk since day one. The elixir they gave me for pain is enough to make a person puke along with the liquid prilocec. I finally told the dr no way to both. Pain isn't too bad and the prilocec I have, I just break a part and mix with orange yogurt.
  21. Just got home. I'm glad to be on my couch curled up in a warm blanket. My puppy is sure mad at me, he wants nothing to do with me at the moment. Haha. Good luck and a speedy recovery for those who are having surgery tomorrow or who just had surgery.
  22. I'm feeling much better today, just kinda blah. I am ready to go home. I'm tired of sipping water. I hope I did the right thing. Anyone else think this way?
