Don't give up, just think you've already lost 18 lbs in just 4 days!  I'm having my surgery on Monday and I know that I will probably get down too, but we have to keep each other pumped up.  We can do this - just remember we want to be better, healthier, and slimmer gals!  Talk you again when I get back from my surgery.

YOu may have answered my question...  I have been feeling like my heart is racing   not bad just enough.  and I am on full liquids still.

It just hit me I am having a reaction to maybe the protein shakes.   The surgeon seems to think it was a reaction to the pain medication.  I am not taking that right now and have not all day and feel better.

The gas is what is getting to me...I also have this feeling of a mass under my breast bone   but hat has been with me for years     I am finding that I don't know what full is and I am hungry.

I am runing a temp of about 100 but the doc says that is normal

Topic: I am back and doing well from Surgery 3/23
Hello everyone, I wanted to make sure that able to hold my food and liquids down before I sent this.
My operation went ready well, I was surprised that I did not have any pain but made sure that I hit the button just in case. I just could not wait to get home and I mean it. I contacted my mother at 7:00 am to come pick me up, all I wanted to do is SLEEP. I just could be get comfortable at all. I was on a clear liquid diet for two day after I got home and I could not wait for FOOD. After all, I was on the opifast diet since March 7 so I was so bored in what I was eating.  But I was surprised that I have had no problems at all in drinking and eating. That God. But I am doing really well and I want to thank everyone for your support throught out this.
