Dr. S & his wife told me that I cried like a baby after surgery!

Today I am 5 days post op & I moved to the hotel, these beds at the Hampton hotels are so comfortable.  Anyway I am in some pain stil but it is manageable with Tylenol during the day & Tramadol at night.  Dr.Sauceda  his Angel of a wife came to see me yesterday & some how got on the subject of him talking to my husband immediatelly after surgery as he always does & my husband was getting concerned because he could hear me crying loudly in the background.  Dr. S was telling him that all went well & that I was fine & DH says she doesn't sound fine, Dr S told him I saw what my stomach & breasts looked like & I was so overwhelmed with my new figure that I could not stop crying & thanking him!

Of course DH wanted to hear directly from me & apparently it took me forever to be able to stop crying long enough to tell him how I was feeling.  Can you believe I remember nothing about that whole conversation. But I am amazed at how he has transformed me, he is truly an artist.  I will try to get the nurse to take a couple of pics so I can post them.

Terri (soaplady should be landing in Monterrey in about 30 min.  I will check in with her before she leaves the hotel for her surgery in the morning & update y'all when she is out of surgery. Wishing the best to all who have had recent surgeries or are about to have them...

Fab,

I love your story...it is overwhelming to see what he has done, I never dared to dream I could ever look like this.

You are going to be amazed how much better you feel now that you are at the hotel. Tell Dr. S and Patty I said hello.

Remember all you have to do is rest....but I would really love to see some pics...lol

I'm so happy for you,
Debbie

 Great story Fab!! I guess that's why they call the sedation medication the "amnesia drug". I guess I am glad my Mom will be there tell me what I say and do. I hope I don't do anything embarrassing!!

Keep us posted and post some pics when you can!!

Fabydee!
Now you truly are Fab!
I love your story!  It made me tear up!  What an adventure all of us have had with our weight loss stories.  It has been quite a journey and you're just realizing what your hardwork has granted you!  I think that is wonderful!
Simply Wonderful!

Fab, I love your story too.  I have to admit that I had to fight back the tears too.    I'm so glad you are experiencing this.  i was just trying to imagine myself today after I have all this stuff thats hanging on me being cut off of me. 

I hope you continue to feel better and tell soapy good luck and can't wait to hear about her recovery.

Have a good night!
