Surgery on Wednesday....

Well I have offically reached the week of my surgery..only three days to go..I don't know how to feel I am so excited about losing the weight but nervous about the actual surgery
(apprently I have a way of looking for the negative in situations) which I assume it is perfectly normal to be nervous..I keep feeling like I am forgetting to do things..I am a wreck lol...

 Hi,
I had my surgery last Monday, November 2 and it is very normal to be nervous.  I was nervous and almost backed out several times but I went through with it and I am glad I did.  The first few days are rough but it is starting to get better now.  Just remember, as everybody tells you, to sip water as much as you can and walk.  The walking helps with those gas pains.  
Good luck to you and I will be looking forward to being a fellow loser with you!

I also had my surgery Nov 2nd and I totally agree with the previous reply.  The first couple days are rough but by the 3rd I felt much better.  I am sitting at my desk at work doing great a week out.  The important thing to remember is that everyone's situation is different.  I had a bit of nausea from the pain meds but that was it.  The contrast study was hard bc the stuff is nasty and made me sick.  I have tolorated everything I have put in my mouth.  Milk etc.  Just believe in yourself and you will do great!!

I just had mine on Nov 3rd I was so nervous too! Once they gave me the calm down juice in my IV I was all ready to go!! The first few days were the worst but now I feel totally fine and just walk around every where. I feel ready for work already too. Just follow their instructions and you will do great! Good luck!

Right here with you girl! Doing my bowel prep now! Woo Hoo! Try the cherry mag.. it tastes way better than the lemon lime stuff. You can get it at CVS.
I am have to be at the hospital at 0600 and my surgery is suppose to start at 0830.
I have this nervous energy and a grumbling tummy. My husband is freaking out about my energy level... of course the worse is yet to come.
Then I begin my life....
