February/March 2014 sleevers

[SuperFab 689]

Well, I have to be there at 6am tomorrow. It's a 3 hr drive. But at least it's early Bc I can't have anything to drink after midnight and I won't have to sit and Dwell on my surgery for too long

Yup. I'm such a bundle of emotions right now. Lol

Just remind yourself of your want tos. Honestly the night before I had surgery I realized I was anxious because I was having trouble imagining myself thinner and healthy. I WANT to be those things but haven't been in quite a while so it was hard to picture. So I kept trying to picture my future which did help.

In the long scheme of things yes, since last July. But as far as waiting for the call from the surgeon it took 11 days lol. But hey I've waited this long!

Hey friends!!! It's me. The nausea patch behind the ear makes everything blurry. Lol

I really had it rough when I woke up. I can honestly say it was the worst pain I've ever felt. They started giving me pain meds every 5 minutes to get my pain under control. I still have gas pain, but at least the abdominal pain is taken care of.

In about an hr and a half I have what's called a blue ice test. I'm given ice that is dyed blue. I eat it slowly as tolerated and they ensure no blue is in my drain tube.

I ain't gonna lie, this has been really rough. Really painful. I always thought I'd tolerated pain well until today. I guess this one would've been ok had they not did the pain meds the way they did.

I can barely hold my head up and stuff so I'm gonna get off of here. Thank you all for such awesome support.

You're in the thick of it now, but it will get easier. I have had many surgeries and this has been the hardest recovery so far. Especially the first three days. But you'll get better. Get some rest and walk when you can. You're going to be fine!
