I can guarantee you that not a single soul was laughing *at* you, but laughing in recognition of what pain meds and, in my case, since I use voice to text a lot too, can do... We all "get" it and are so happy you're on the other side now... PS: my kids hate it when I use voice to text because it does sometimes come out a little garbled...but I say, if my message got across, then good for me -- and we all understood you made it thru surgery fine...yea for you!

Today I had the worst day ever, but this was the best laugh I've had in a long time. I actually laughed till I cried! Don't apologize. I hope my meds are 1/2 as good as yours. So glad you're ok.

Laughter is after a the best meds so this should be good for everyone. Including yourself later when you are having a down moment this should brighten your day. Most important. You did it and are now mending. Prayers for a breezy recovery.

I couldn't even text "Hi, I'm fine" to my family and friends when I came out of surgery so I take my hat off to you and wish you all the best as the meds wear off...!

I am still concerned about the midget. Where has the midget gone? We need to ensure the midget's needs are being met. I will begin looking at the "chicken farm".

This post was exactly what I needed. Nobody was laughing at you and probably most were realizing they could have/or will say worse. I will take the lesson of this post and make sure my phone is not readily available until I can argue with my wife to get it back.

Everybody here is so supportive, thank you.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
