Post-op and doing well

Jan 24, 2010

Hi everyone-

I came through very well. When I arrived at the hospital on Wednesday, I was so hungry because of the 2 day fast. God I could have eaten everything! Once I woke up, I had no appetite at all just really thirsty! They would not allow me any water for hours only swaps of water on my lips and gums! Then the leak test was like heaven; juice with a straw! My gosh, I had to spread it over 4 hours! Anyway, my diabetes went down so quick it was amazing! Then just as I was setting in to enjoy 3 or 4 days of pampering they kicked me out! Oh well my hubby made up for it! So I am here at home, 5 days after the surgery and only am trying to find what suits me to eat. It looks like I won't be able to tolerate real sugar, yea! I actually got a little nauseous from very diluted apple and cranberry juices! I did suck on a sugar free pop-sickle and looks like it agreed with the pouch. So to all my friends and well-wishers and those who sent prayers for me and mine a BIG THANK YOU and may GOD bless you all  I will be calling upon you for strength and guidance and happiness for my successful weight loss which I hope will start soon!!
