    Sleeping

    I didnt even think of this. I have surgery in a week and have slept on my stomach as long as I can remember. Tried to sleep on my back dozens of times to help with some back issues and I could never do it. How screwed will I be
  2. Nope shes still not onboard. Had to have my mother take the surgery day off so she could bring me.

    Gatorade before surgery?

    I have to drink some pre surgery liquid carb drink made by ensure before my surgery. Probably the same reasoning, having carbs before surgery is suppose to help with recovery.
  4. I actually dont have to do a liquid diet before surgery

    February Surgery ?

    Its starting to get real. I'm on the 26th. I just let my boss know I was going to be out for about 2 weeks. Is that enough time? I have a desk job.

    Still a virgin at 46

    Ya man. But it's not the weight loss that will get you dates it's the confidence you'll gain that will attract the ladies. I was big all my life. My first date was when I was 24 and thats because I lost 160 lbs and put my self out there on dating sites. That was 10 years ago. Since then I've put on varying degrees on weight back on and was still able to get dates I fractured my back a few years ago and put all the weight back on so I'm getting sleeved in 2 weeks.
  7. Any deal with chronic pain before and still after surgery? I have surgery in two weeks and this has been on my mind. I have chronic pain in my back. I fractured a vertebrae and had to have a lumbar fusion a few years ago. I also have some bad discs in my neck that hurt like hell the past 2 years. I'm hoping the surgery helps but I'm afraid I'm not going to be able to cope since food became my go to.

    February Surgery ?

    Congrats! Did they give you pain rx for home? I'm in MA, surgery in two weeks. I feel like they are trying to do away with the pain meds.

    February Surgery ?

    I'm two weeks from tomorrow. My 3 year old came home from preschool sick. Hope I dont catch anything.
  11. My program did away with the self administered pain meds this month. Hope it isn't too bad

    February Surgery ?

    We have the same surgery date! Congrats.
  13. Has anyone had their surgery and had to drink liquid carbs beforehand? Sounds strange. The program at my hospital is making changes starting for surgeries in feb (I'm on the 26th) One of them is a bottle of liquid carbs the night before and 2 the morning of surgery. They also changed the hospital stay from usually 2 to 1. And we no longer get pain medicine that you self administer as needed.
  14. Nope. I have no pre op diet. Can eat normally. Just have to have those drink the night before and day of. I found the exact stuff they gave me https://ensure.com/nutrition-products/ensure-pre-surgery
  15. I dont think shes afraid of me dying. I asked her why she was against it and the only thing she could say was she doesnt want to have to deal with me eating weird food? Honestly if that's really her reason then I'll divorce her myself
  16. I kind of want to tell her my body my choice but that wouldn't go over so well. Although isn't that what women preach? My wife isn't large. Never had a weight issue but shes put on a few since our first child.
  17. Scheduled for Feb 26 here in Massachusetts
