If you look up at the top right by your name there is a drop down box. Click on "my profile". Where the picture is on the upper left corner' date=' hover mouse over it and it will say "upload picture" or "change". Click on that and it will prompt you to upload your pic. Hope this makes sence [/quote']

Ok so I'm on my phone trying this. Do I have to be on the computer?

Surgery can make you very anxious. Having just gone through this on the 7th I can tell you from my expeirence it went great. I too was very nervous. As long as you stick to your doctors pre-op orders you will be fine.

Banded 8/7.

I wasn't expecting to skip out of the surgery center, but I wasn't expecting it to be so difficult either. The first few days were really tough recovering from the surgery. The gas pressure was intense. Today I feeling much, much better. Still tired & a bit gassy, but more like myself.

I haven't had any hunger pains at all. I have to force myself to get in the Protein that is required. I'm looking forward to my new life.

My paperwork for FMLA is all finalized thank god. Since Surgery is Monday. Nervous, excited, scared, hoping my 3 week pre-op diet did the trick and my liver is small when I try to feel just under my ribs I feel a solid object but I don't know if its my liver. I admitted I cheated once, it has me scared, I don't think it was enough to delay my surgery. I'm not trying to justify it I shouldn't have it was a bean/cheese burrito and a chicken taco. I've been better following the diet since and cutting my calories, my fingers are crossed I'm ok.
