meme8883 6 Posted August 8, 2014 Thanks. Dr Suh at inland valley hosp in murrieta. I have to drink only liquids the day before and he told me to start limiting my starches now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Susan909 52 Posted August 8, 2014 I've heard really good things about Dr. Suh. Did you have to lose 10% before surgery? You are so lucky not to have to do an extended liquid diet before. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
meme8883 6 Posted August 10, 2014 I didn't quite make the 10% goal. I definitely can not gain before surgery Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Susan909 52 Posted August 10, 2014 I'm having a hard time getting it off... I exercise my booty off but it's slowwwww going. I'm down about 11 of the 18 I need to lose. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iwhit 3 Posted August 11, 2014 I'm having a hard time getting it off... I exercise my booty off but it's slowwwww going. I'm down about 11 of the 18 I need to lose. I lost 5% and I was cleared..I think as long as you're showing progress, you'll be ok.. Tomorrow is the day for me...super nervous and many things going through my head today. Hopefully I'll get some sleep tonight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iwhit 3 Posted August 13, 2014 @ iwhit<br> Been thinking of you and wishing you an easy breezy recovery.. Please share how your doing when your up to it :-) Thanks to all of you. Well, the surgery went well but since then has been really rough for me. I was supposed to leave at noon today but couldn't due to my nausea which is causing me to vomit any liquids :-/ so hopefully tomorrow is the day. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iwhit 3 Posted August 13, 2014 Hope you feel better soon. Rest and heal. Thx guys...so I'm feeling 90% better than yesterday. I am no longer nauseated and can drink Water without terrible pain. I did get a patch for nausea behind my ear so I probably feel better because of that and time. I've had a bad history with the anesthesia and nausea. I really asked myself why did I do this and was regretting it since I was so miserable but tried to remember the words of those on here who said it would pass. I know I'm not out of the woods yet but definitely feel a whole lot better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
