You will rock it!

They did some kind of pain block while in surgery. That lasts a few days I hear. So that made walking around the hospital easier for me, I bet.

Since I was walking they were able to remove those pressure socks that inflate to prevent blood clots. That was a plus.

Best of luck on the 21st!

Thanks for the kind words. I am going to head over to post op as I have a few questions for the experts.

Thank you so much for the encouragement! Countdown begins for Monday. Keeping my mind focused on the overall outcome. When thoughts of certain foods come to mind, I acknowledge it and remind myself of the major change in health that's around the corner. Can't want to golf, ride a bike and the many activities I used to enjoy. I'm so grateful to be able to share on this website.

Hi all! I made it with flying colors.

I stayed the one night and now I am home.

It was easier than I expected. I’m sore but not that bad.

Gas pains were minor but I did walk an awful lot so maybe that helped.

Best wishes to all!

Woo Hoo!!! Congratulations!!!! Rest well!!!
