SoccerMomma73 1,867 Posted February 19, 2013 I see your weight is dropping soccer mom! Good for you. How are ya feeling? In a word? Grumpy this too shall pass!!! I was actually whining earlier because I lost 3 pounds the week I had surgery while watching others who have like 10+ lb losses during that same time frame. But again, 3 pounds gone is three pounds gone! Physically I'm good. Went to the grocery store today, exhausted by the time I got home but even with the walking, shopping, loading, unloading had no real pain, just a little stiffness (I only lifted a bag or two at a time). Ready to be back at work but my MD harassed me into taking off today and tomorrow so back to work Wednesday! Yay!!!! But I am moody!!!! Easy to tears, not feeling myself, not liking this part!!

You have given a lot of insight and I appreciate it![/quote'] No major lifting or straining and no major complications I'd say yup (and your doc says so of course!!!). I am doing 1/2 days wed-thurs-fri....but I cannot imagine I won't be ready to roll next week. I think part of my 'blahs' today is just being home away from my co-workers and patients. As crazy as they make me some days, I love em all (mostly!!!).

Montage 87 Posted February 19, 2013 Just found out that my paperwork is only getting submitted today to insurance. I'm really hoping that this doesn't change my surgery date again. If it does I'll be pretty upset. Just want to be on the losing side so bad. 1 vachick64 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

choosethewrench 1 Posted February 19, 2013 Pre-op I only needed a 3 day liquid diet. Tomorrow is surgery but awful exhausted from lack of calories these past 3 days. Head feels a bit foggy. So glad my surgery was moved up to the morning from 2:45 in the afternoon! I now applaud all who did this pre-op diet for 2 weeks and I have no complaints for my 3 days!! Congrats to those who just went through and Carpe Diem to those going in this week! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
