I have only been taking the pain medicine (liquid Vicodin) before bedtime for the past 4 days. How much weight did you lose prior to your surgery?

Getting my boys to eat what I was eating would have been impossible. (My boys are 19 & 17) The day I came home from the surgery.. they all wanted pizza :thumbup:(which was actually okay with me). Once I am back to eating regular food, I will be going through all of my Weight Watchers cookbooks and making healthier meals for the entire family (I will just have to double the recipes). They support me!! They just don't want to starve! lol Are you feeling better Mandie?

It sounds to me like our husbands came from the same mold (LOL)!! My husband is also very supportive and I think he worries about me more than I worry about myself. It is great to have so many supportive people around me (my hubby, my sons, my parents and all my friends).

Great News Mandie!! Glad to hear everything is okay. The worst part of my recovery so far has been a sore throat and cough. I had my follow up appt yesterday. The doctor told me if my cough got any worse that I should see my regular doctor. It actually feels a lot better today. :bored: Otherwise, everything else is healing great. I am soooo glad I made the decision to do this. :thumbup:

No staples here either.

I am back to work today (just 4 days after my surgery). I feel pretty good!! I have a little bit of a cough, because of the tube down my throat and my tummy just feels really tense, rather than sore. Good Luck to All with upcoming surgery dates.

My surgery was on Thursday 6/18/09. I am back to work today (just 4 days later). Dr. Jackson was great!! So far, so good!!

My surgery is tomorrow morning with Dr. Jackson.

Good Luck Nicki!! :blushing:

Good Luck Mandie!! I am very excited for you!! :wink2: Darlene Surgery Date: 6/18/09 @ 6am

I too have been counting the days.... Thank Goodness my surgery is scheduled for 6am. At least I won't have to count the hours tomorrow. :wink2:

June 18th for me. Nervous... but way more excited.:wink:
