Topic: March 13 where are you?!

My surgery date is coming sooooo slooooowly.  I've got "Aaaaaaaaaaaaah!" covering the first half of March on my calendar in a big marker which makes me smile every time I see it.  

I'm just so ready to get this thing over with so I can get on with life.  I really feel like I'm just in a holding pattern right now!

Wooo!  Someone who is on the same date as I am!  :D  I've also had previous laparascopies, but they've been in the ovary area too, so I'm not worried that the scar tissue will be an issue.  Good luck!!

I'm March 13!  So soon!!!  I'm super excited and my liquid diet is going much more smoothly than I worried it would.  I haven't had a single desire to cheat aside from the teaspoon of rock sugar that I added to my mint tea after my endoscopy on the second day of the diet.

Topic: RE: How are the Early March-ers doing?

Hello hope your recovery is goin well with no complications. I was sleeved on 3/4/14 and I am definitely having buyers remorse. I was discharged on the 6th and felt fine. But starting last night I have been in excruciating pain, light headed, dizzy, nauseous all the time and this drink schedule is too much. I'm trying to keep up but I feel so full just from drinking. I'm starting to feel so depressed and wondering if I made the wrong decision. I'm not missing food but I am missing being able to do stuff with my children. I hope everyone's experience is goin Vetter than mine :(
