alicephipps@gmail.com got a reaction from mandy4508 in Will I be broken forever?
I am only 5 days out of surgery and am on the other end of your spectrum.
No complaints, no real issues and seeing your post makes me feel guilty for feeling so good.
Having said that, please pet your dog that will give you and the dog comfort, walk around your house or outside if you an it will help you get out of the downwards funk you are feeling.. good luck with your journey!!

alicephipps@gmail.com got a reaction from Hammer_Down in Fluid intake one week post-op
I have no problem getting in my 64oz as I am constantly drinking something.My biggest fear after surgery was they would limit my intake of fluids due to the smaller pouch but have done remarkably well!!
I am 2weeks after surgery and dwn 23.4 pounds haven't had any issues with nausea no vomiting and So sorry to hear that some people have a really hard time..

alicephipps@gmail.com got a reaction from stormid in Wondering about the day before surgery.
I did some weird stuff ,I knew in case of something going wrong my husband of 44 years would be lost!!
So I being the financial person in our house I made sure all bills were current,made a calendar with what has to be paid and on what day .
I wrote letters for my 2 daughters,4 grandchildren and my husband.!! Never wanting to leave anything unsaid!
In the letter to my husband I put a place for where specific Life insurance documents were in our house!!
Kinda getting things in order so to speak, I didn't think bad thoughts about surgery but I feel being prepared is always better.
I told my husband where the letters were and to take care of my girls and grandchild...
I went into surgery knowing I had made sure he could handle everything!!
Morbid???No just experienced a lot of losses as many as 8 family members in 1 year
and nothing is worse than grieving and not being prepared!!Anyway I couldn't drink after midnight so I set my alarm for 11:45 got up and drank my last diet pepsi!!
Good luck with your journey!!
