Well it is all over now, and I`m feeling pretty good.
I am day three into recovery and am on full fluids now which is nice.
Although I do wish I knew more about the amount of gas they pumped into my belly and how uncomfortable that was going to be, I think I had more pain pills for that pain than the actual surgery, the gas also made my back ache in between my shoulderblades. I had a shower today and that was absoulely exhausting. (pain pill)
Tommorow I am going to the hotel for a couple of days because I live so far from the hospital. Fingers crossed all goes well. I have been tolerating all the foods so far,and it`s true you need to plan to eat for about an hour and a half, things will get cold and you will need to reheat them.  I do need my fibre but I left it at home, not good..

After almost two weeks of drinking Optifast shakes, I learned after the 3rd day I NEED fiber.
I am a regular BM kinda person, but because there is no fiber in the shakes you should add some.
I found a great one Benefiber it is water soulable and has no flavour. I just can`t understand how this
powdery stuff helps SOOO immensley.... Fiber to me means grains, vegetables, etc. not white powder.
3 more days at home... then 6am tues morning I am at hospital.
Please think positive thoughts to all going into surgery...
Thank-you
