How are you holding up, sweetie?

I am doing well....thinking about you!

I have to tell you... The surgery was a success, BUT I am feeling pretty off... I'm worried about getting in my Water.< /p>

Congrats on your surgery..sugar free Popsicles were my ticket to fluids 48 hours after my surgery and warm tea..water made me nauseous..but I promise...it gets better over time..hang in there!

I'm sure it will get better. I swore that I was not going to be one of those people who said what did I do to myself? But I'm really not feeling well. And I'm surprised.

Can't sleep.....

I have to be at Kaiser Richmond CA at 10:30 in the morning! My actual surgery is at 12:30.

I don't really have any support...my mom is taking me and is not very happy with my choice to have my sleeve. " you are losing the weight' date=' why get the surgery!"

I am getting my sleeve for my own reasons. I am a single mom. I have 2 children. I am going to turn 44 on June 21st...I will be in the hospital!!! I am not getting any younger. Losing the weight will give me back nine or so more years with my babies!!! Enough said, right?

Wish me luck, as I start this journey alone. If I watch one more Gastric Sleeve YouTube video, I may crack....LOL

Night...

Afternoon everyone!

Well' date=' I had my surgery yesterday! It was awful waking up from the anesthesia- I was sooooo sick, dry heaving with horrible cotton mouth sucks. The nurses gave my everything they had for nausea. Didn't work? Nope......

So, it was a long night of checking my pulse and getting up to pee. They must have filled my abdomen with the Panama Canal!

Good new is, I am home. I have a buttload of meds to take. I had the pharmacist make me a meds time sheet.

Laying on the couch, sipping chicken broth with horrible gas. I am bloated and get the hiccups every time I get up to walk.

Bottom line, I am home, it is over, I am on a new road- just learning to drive slow...

Yes the hiccups! I don't get them anymore.
