Ahhhhh, I know! I'm so glad to hear you're doing much better. At least you don't have that damn drain in anymore! That sucks that you're having a problem with the denser foods...hopefully your tummy just needs a lil more time to heal and you'll be good to go. I'm proud of you!!!

Hi Tonia, just wondering how you're feeling/doing. Feel free to msg me on the bb. I don't wanna bother you!! *hugs*

WHOO! YAY! *fireworks*

You're now a loser, dude! Congrats

*hugs*

Good luck today!

OK, it's all good. Here is why. I am gonna go in tomorrow and then come home friday and tell you all the details so you will be more prepared!!
I am trying to find a silver lining here. What other tests do you need? I had 28 pre-op appts. My surgeon is ANAL and very well known for his EXCESSIVE pre-op body scan. There is no part of my body that was not xrayed ultasound, tubes stuck in down and up, blood, EKG, sleep study, stress test the list goes on and on and on and on I swear I never thought I would EVER be done and pass. But I did finally, and you will too!!!!! We gotta do this. I went with my girls to see a play yesterday and we got our picture taken out front. Probably the last picture I will have taken of myself before surgery.....and I am fat. I will attach it. This is what said, ok, scared or not, your going cause you look like SHIT!!!
Be cool!!!!

This sucks so bad, but now that there are only 4 days left, I don't care anymore....... I really did want something carb today, just because I want to feel full. I have been SHAKING!!! I called the dr's office and nurse said that I shouldn't be shaking, to add more veggies. (Im thinking potatoes are veggies right?) but I know that isn't what she meant.
Then yesterday I went to the hospital where I am having my surgery to pay my HUGE 800.00 copay and just happened to see my surgeon walk by. I said hey and all, see ya Wed all that, then I said, um you are starving me!! He said it's because I don't drink milk..I can do anything for 4 more days.
How far along are you in this diet from hell?

I vent in the stapler's thread, but I came here to support you my fellow Octostapler!

Yes it's hard, but when we are healthy and normal, we will laugh at this and say that was the easiest shit ever!

Stay awesome!
Axel

I guess it doesn't matter...what the hell is it gonna do for me anyway? I will be pissed at myself if I do it, I know it!!!!

The reason why they put us lowly people on these diets is because they know that we would go to those extremes, like licking the TV or licking dad's cheesburger wrapper. They record this and they put a sad person in a room to cheer him up.

"ha, well I'm not reduced to licking TV's" pulls out a Potbelly's

Just trying to use humor as a way to get through. If I don't I'll go beyond licking the TV!
