Thanks! Yes, I'm a little surprised at how good I feel! I am sore but not too bad, really -- certainly not as bad as I expected. But then I took the advice of some sage poster on this board: Expect the worst and hope for the best! :)

I hope everything goes well for you, too!

Wonderful Longhorn! I was thinking about you today! I can't believe you got to go home the same day! I have to stay over night and get to leave the next day after 3:00pm. My husband went out and bought me a recliner and put it in the bedroom next to his side of the bed. He said he wants to make sure I am right next to him. He's so sweet! We do everything together, our 30th anniversary is in Jan! He wanted to go away but I want to wait until I lose some of this weight!

Anyway I am SOOOOO glad to hear you are doing well! Are you on clear fluids? Keep in touch! And keep feeling GREAT! I really needed to hear some good stuff. Getting close and I am getting very nervous. So thanks for the great news!

Ann: We had our 31st in March! So much in common! Sounds like you've got a winner, just as I did!

I have to admit that I'm glad I'm home because the few times I've been in a hospital, I never rested very well. And my five dogs would miss me. :)

Longhorn ok this is just getting crazy! I have 5 dogs too! Actually 7 live here 2 of them belong to our daughter.

I would LOVE to come home the same day! I can't stand the thought of not being home with my hubby and "babies". We have 2 mini pins 2 mini dachshunds and 1 English Mastiff. My daughters 2 are also Mini Dachshunds. We flew last Feb to San Antonio to pick up our new baby Dachshund. I am worried about how to keep them from jumping on my belly when I am sitting down. The two dachsunds also sleep with us :)

I'm really anal - I cleaned it up a bit and put Cherlita as being only on the 27th (that was her stated date). Good luck to everybody! It's getting so close! I'm excited!

Ann: We used to have a dachshund but he was far from mini! He weighed 23 pounds when we found out he had a thyroid problem.

We currently have, from oldest to youngest: Paco, a female black lab mix, 50 pounds, 10 years old; Buddy, a male white lab mix, 75 pounds, 8 years old; Sparky, a male Rhodesian Ridgeback, 110 pounds, 7 years old; Corky, a male poodle mix, 18 pounds, 2 years old; and Chase, a male German Shepherd mix, 80 pounds, 2 years old.

Every one of these dogs was some sort of rescue or "pity adoption." ;)

I've been keeping my pillow on my tummy (in the recliner) and when Corky jumps up on it, I don't even feel it. The other dogs don't usually try to climb on my lap but we have a baby gate at the top of the stairs to keep them away, when necessary.

Too bad you're so far away! But for now, I guess we'll have to be virtual buddies! :hug:

      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.
