If your spirometer is put together correctly. Make see the hose is in the "patient side" hole. I sucked like crazy on that dang thing and couldn't make that ball move. Til I showed the nurse that it said "patient side" on it. Sigh.

I'm back at the hotel now. Had some great broth that I could only eat 3/4 of. Had a Popsicle that I couldn't finish either. The drain tube coming out didn't hurt. When she went to pull it out I freaked out for a second and started hollowing STOP STOP STOP and then my friends busted out laughing and told me it was done already. So it really doesn't hurt. The staples will come out tomorrow so I will let u know how that goes. I know now why fellow sleevers don't post so much after surgery. Sorry I have not been posting to much but 1st day was bad and 2nd day was better but not great and the 3rd day WOW I FEEL GREAT. Not hungry but I am thirsty. I got to meet SChavez b4 surgery. I also talked to Jay1234 he is here at the hotel. Well fixing to go get some more chicken or beef broth.

Glad you feel so great! That's a lot of broth, go uou! I only got like 10 sips in at a time then it would go cold. Ew. Lol

You'll notice that each batch of broth will taste different. Mu fave was the super salty kind. Don't judge me. Lol

Anyway, it's all better from now!

So glad you're doing better and better each day! I was so relieved to get to the hotel and lie down in that comfy bed!

[Kristina J. 581]

So glad everything is going so well!!! I know you were anxious, so I'm so happy for you that it's worked out so well!!! Hope you're feeling even better today!!

Had a great day today. We went shopping at a place call Revolution. It was fun and if u like to haggle u can get stuff for cheap. We took a taxi from the hotel and it was $7.00 but we gave him $10.00 and when we were done he gave us his number and one of the shop owners called him for us. My friend wanted me to make sure I told everybody about how good the food was at the hospital. On the 4th floor by the elevator was a little kitchen and she said the food was great and very cheap. She also said that the kitchen/store was also great and cheap. The only thing is,they both close at 4 pm and are closed on weekends. When she would go get lunch she would order dinner and then go back down at 3:45pm and pick up her dinner. Dr. Luna came to the hotel and took are staples out today. It didn't hurt!!! He talked to us about getting in are Protein and what kind is best. (Iso-pure from GNC).Then Rosie stopped by to see if we had any questions. We went down to the restaurant after she left and got a broth and mash potatoes. We took about 2 tbs of mash potato and chicken broth and made a thin Soup out of it. It was so good. I have only got one bottle of peach flavored pedialyte in today. I'm trying to get in another bottle of power ade but I'm so full. Well we leave tomorrow Our plane leaves at 12:45pm and the time changes tonight so we r confused. Time does not change in Tijuana. They like to have at least 4 hour to cross the boarder. I hope it don't take us that long. So I will let u know how tomorrow goes.

Rohler, what channels did you have on the tv? Or what tv shows were you able to watch. Trying to decide if I need to try to bring something to watch.

There are a few English speaking stations at the Hospital but even less at the Hotel. I just mostly watched a station I found that was broadcasted through San Diego so it was English. In my opinion I would take something if you can and have room for it.
