Surprisingly they brought me dinner 2 hours post op. Cream Tomato Soup, black Tea, and vanilla pudding with a small package of Protein. My wife ate the Soup, and I dipped on the tea. I am slowly working my way through the pudding, (watered down with milk). I learned very quickly about the need for sipping VERY slowly. 🤤. Went for a walk, which greatly helped the gas issue. WOOO HOOO!!! You did it!! You did it!! yay yay yay! So glad to here you are feeling good and doing what needs to be done! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’m starting to feel very scared, especially when I reviewed my pre-surgical consult notes of all the potential risks. I worry what if something goes wrong, and then it’s like I did it to myself. But there’s that saying “everything you want is on the other side of fear.” I’m trying to live that and just have faith. Sometimes I get so excited thinking about how my life could be if I felt better about myself. If i could wear all the clothes in my closet. If I felt sexy. If I could kayak without worrying I’m over the weight limit. But then at night the fear and anxiety creep in. Just three more weeks...I hope I have made the right decision for myself, and for my family. I had a little break down last night thinking about risks... part of it I think is coming from me losing a little weight like 10 lbs prior to the two week making a commitment to my nut about what I would do in my three weeks, and for whatever reason it is working a little bit for me like I haven't been able to lose 10 lbs in two years trying so many different ways... your not alone in the fear department and your not alone in feeling the same way of what is beyond the fear I have... I agree I hope it is the right choice, but I also feel like I can't keep going the way I am now, and I need to be around for my family. We got this though! See you on the bench!
