More good news! They were able to do the surgery through his rectom. This is what Kim was hoping for.

She hasn't gotten any sleep and it will be a long few days, so feel free to give her a call or stop by.

Lets keep praying. He will be on liquids for 48 hours them food and then he has to go to the BR to make sure everything is ok.

Hey Everyone!!!!

We are HOME!!!! I think Curtis has the best surgeon out there. He came by this morning and said everything looked great and let us go. He said he knew that I would take good care of him at home. He always pays me such good complements. I am so very blessed to have him. Now for Curtis, he is doing great not complaining of any pain and going strong. He is such a trooper...strong and just great. I know I am partial. He little hinny looks great it looks like yours and mine of course only smaller. haha. I have some good pain meds to give him and we are just going to hang out in the house over the next few days.

I got a sinus infection while I was in the hospital and it's killing me. The first one since having the band and I tell you it really effects what I can eat. I know it sounds weird but I have had to put myself back on liquids..it's much better the hospital food anyway. :P

Again THANKS for all your thoughts and prayers...it is what brought us through. I know Curtis had so many people with him while he was in surgery.

I am so blessed to have found you all!!!!

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
