5 days post op
Nov 10, 2007
I know I am lame, I haven't updated my profile in awhile. So here goes. I am now 5 days post op and dang it went by really fast. I can't believe it! So far according to my scale at home I have lost 12 lbs. But as we all know the doctors scale is always different. So I 'll see what it says on the 20th when I go for my 2wk check up. SO my sugery went fine. It was really painful the first time I had to sit up.....OMG I thought someone was sticking me with hot needles. I made it though. Then the doc to me I had to get up and get moving. So off to walking the halls I went. I must have walked about 6 hurs in one day. I was determined to "pass gass". They told me that if I didnt' I wouldn't go home. So walk walk walk I did. Then it finally happened.....yayayyawwwhooo!!! I was discharged on Thursday morning and was so happy to see my house. Overall everything went good. Now the next 2.5 weeks will be fun on liquids, I have a lot of different things so hopefully it won't be to bad. I'll update again after my 2wk check-up until then be good.
10 days

I went and saw Dr Boliver on Monday for my psych eval and it went very well. Totally not what I had expected. He said that I am a good canidate for surgery and I should do very well... That was the words I was hoping to here............and I DID!!!
Then on Tuesday I had my one on one with Dr. Ali. I took my mom with me so she could ask questions herself and meet him. It was pretty funny when we got there I asked her do you have your questions written down. She said "no i don't need too", well when we meet with the Dr. she started asking a million questions I couldnt' get one in at all. So I was pleased to see that she did all the asking. I must say about Dr. Ali WOW!! what a guy. I was very impressed. He seems to really have a heart for what he does. Now that is impressive!!
So now I am almost done. I have to go see my PCP on Friday for my final medical clearance and then I am done!!! Then it is waiting time unitll NOV. 5TH...the day I become a loser!!!!

Been a month since I updated my profile, so here it is! Not to much going on just playing the waiting game. I hope to get a call with all my pre-op appointments soon. That way I can get this on the road. Waiting I think is the hardest part. Life has had it's ups and downs this past month,but nothing I couldn't handle. Just makes me that much of a stronger women. Well that is it for now.
It Got it!!!
