June 2013 Sleevers! "The List"

[Camella 209]

Hi all! I've been having problems posting.. But have read everything everyone has written. Thank you all for everything you've written because this forum has really answered so many of my questions and alleviated my fears more than anything. I am grateful for each of you!

My surgery is tomorrow afternoon so I will stay in overnight. I am just ready to have it over so I can stop worrying about the "what its". Has anyone had the thoughts of what the heck am I doing? I'm sure everyone at one time or another. But some days it just paralyzes me...like this morning. Argh!

I have been feeling exactly the same way. I started a blog yesterday and it really helped me when I wrote a post about how I got to my current weight and why I am doing this. It helped shift my thoughts from what might go wrong to what the outcome might be like (which of course will be awesome). I wish you the best of luck and do something nice for yourself it may distract you.

Lisa!! I'll be praying for you. You will be fine. Take it easy. Day 3 was my worst day and today I feel 75%. It gets better everyday. Good luck and keep me posted.

Thank you! Keep letting me know how you're doing too! When was your surgery?

Day 6 postop...had doc appt, healing well, gained a pound but doc said its expected. Spirits are good, getting liquids in and quite a bit of Protein. On liquids till monday start some pureed meats and veggie about 2 ounce which I'd 2 tbsp...I too believe keeping postive helps so much and following the rules on preop diet makes a differences also. Always remembering everyday gets better and read all you can on the post its a life saver...
