~BRITT~ Update!

Hi Everyone, Britt's surgery went perfectly! She went in at a little after 10am and was done by noon, according to her Hubby. I just spoke to her and she's very uncomfortable from the gas. Unfortunately the Morphine does zero for the gas pains. They already got her up and walking...she did 2 laps! So, all in all she's doing well but ithe gas pains are really intense. I'll check in tomorrow with new updates! Finally, Britt is a Loser! Hugs, -Karen

mazol tov BRITT is a LOSER that is the best news and that she is doing great is even better I am thrilled and cannot wait to be on the bench with you

Karen, Thanks so much for the update hun, please when you talk to her tomorrow let her know I send my thoughts and prayers to her! I know the gas pain just stinks but please remind her that it will pass and the walking sure helps with that as well. YEAH BRITT! Your on the losers bench now... Love ya Debra p

Hi Britt - It's great to hear all is well. I can't imagine all this gas pain everyone has. I guess I will find out next week Monday. I have eaten like a pig today! Tomorrow I go back to Phase I of the South Beach diet till surgery on Monday. I am on sugar overload as I speak; sooooo tired!!!! I'm thinking of you, hang in there!

Hi Bren, I don't recall having bad gas pains at all - I guess I was lucky. However...I had bad nausea. It wasn't fun, but it's behind you before you can blink! Good luck with your upcoming surgery. Hugs, -Karen

Karen - Thank you! I just came from the hospital for my check up/weigh in and to receive all this paperwork and sign here and sign here and there. I've been so scared; but all the nurses and my nutritionist were great with me today, I feel now that I am ready for Monday!
