Surgery tomorrow & the most amazing scents are happening downstairs!



Recommended Posts

Oh my! Anyone else struggling/starving on this lovely Easter Day? Everyone is downstairs feasting & I'm hiding upstairs pretending to have a headache cause the family doesn't know about surgery tomorrow. So my question is...with just the right amount of butter could mashed potatoes be considered a liquid? ?? (J/k, kinda)

Totally. We went to Red Lobster and I ordered gumbo so I could eat the broth only. No cheddar bay biscuits.

Everyone was asking if I wasn't hungry.

And of course you replied no, I'm not hungry ;). I guess I should be happy that I have another room to hide in as I could not stay away from cheddar bay biscuits!

I am also having my surgery tomorrow and have been on the liquids for two days. I basically have stayed away from everyone (they deserve to live) and been in my room waiting. I detest chicken broth and really have not found much else that is clear except Water, weak green tea and white grape juice. I finally took something to sleep about 10 minutes ago and counting down until I can fall asleep. Alarm set, bag packed and I am ready to roll in the morning at 5 am. I just want the hunger pains to stop.

The subject of who to tell!!! I feel like I don't want to tell people cause I don't want to have to talk them into why this is a good option for me. I don't want criticism. It's like when I finally picked a name for my kids before they were born. I put a lot of thought into their name. Someone would ask what are u gonna name baby if it's a girl. I would tell them. And they would wrinkle up nose and say ohhh I don't know if I like it. Really at this point keep your comments to yourself!

Anyway sorry- guess I just needed to say that! Ha

Good luck to all your amazing people who are scheduled tomorrow. Please let us know how u are doing! I will be checking up on u all.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
