    doc was honest and brutal, hated me even GETTING the surgery done. said i need to get bloodwork done.. fasting bloodwork... meanwhile.. my dumbass keeps eating in the morning before gettin bloodwork.. lmao... sooooooo there will be no bloodwork AGAIN this morning... kelly is not the morning person at all.. so its tough...

    he said it could be numerous things and until we sit down w/ my bloodwork that it is impossible to pin-point what it is & that gastric bypass patients have hugeee malabsorption issues and that im a growing lil 23 yr old still.. soooo im going to have some issues and my body is going to be thrown outta whack..

    he did however say i looked amazing.. which, of course i already knew :-D. i think thats the jersey girl in me though

    Hey Jim!

    Sorry but we are now officially 'friends' - you can't get rid of me! Thanks so much for inviting me - makes me feel love out there in cyber world!

    I just got back tonight after a long weekend in Amsterdam so hence haven't been online! Too busy living it up on the darkside! Think there might need to be a little diet modification after this weekend - I was very very naughty and am dreading standing on those scales tomorrow morning - oops.

    How are things doing with you?

    Hi, each day is better then the next, then again sometimes not....I totally am happy with the decion that i made,the chances of me dying without the surgery was much more and the chances of making it off the table was 85% not making it, gotta tell you something!!! But, all in all yes i am feeling better! I can walk and take showers without someone holding me up! Thanks very much for asking,! BTW, sometimes on the board i can be blunt but noone really has been in my feet so i do tell the bad!! But, the good is always good to hear!!! Sometimes people just rush into it and dont pay attionion expect they want to be skinny or whatever!! But, by no means am i a mean person I just feel people need to know that very bad things can happen!! Just like suzy, and i know no one really cares for her but, i felt her pain every step of the way!!!! And we still talk!! Thanks Laura!

The angelic Crystal still has care for me. I have seen several Doctors today. Dr. White, my surgeon this AM, he says I am doing great and I should be out of the hospital tomorrow. An Internist that works with Dr. White on cases where a patients PCP does not work at a specific hospital. I cannot remember his name, but he also says I am doing great and should be out of jail by tomorrow.

Roxy and Beth came to visit the afternoon. Roxy is Dr. Whites Program Administrator Nurse and Beth...

I am beginning to not like Tami the nurse who came on at 7. Its just after midnight and I dread the words that are about to come out of her mouth with that cute southern drawl. They have come out of her mouth several times in the last few hours. "Any Luck?" she says. Those two words would have been fine if I was fishing, or at the Blackjack table. But at this moment in time, they were dreaded. Tonight, I definitely do not like Tami.

I cannot pee.

I have stood,...

I awoke to the wonderful sight of Wheelchair Pusher Girl. I am sure they have an official title, but all I know, at that point in time, is that she will be called Wheelchair Pusher Girl and that Wheelchair Pusher Girl = the test and passing the test = water therefore, Wheelchair Pusher Girl = water in my current 4 mg of morphine one hour ago hazed mind. My high school algebra teacher would be happy. Let us review, if A=B and B=C, then A=C. On to the test.

So as best as we could, we...

I am thirsty. I could end this blog right here and that would sum this morning up. I will repeat, I am thirsty. I have had nothing to drink since 10:30 on Sunday night and it is now 0630 on Tuesday Nov 20th and my throat and mouth is so dry. Sure, I have been on an IV, I have the Foley Catheter properly installed (a story which I will elaborate upon) and I am involuntarily moving bodily fluids. But my mouth is dry and my throat hurts and I have just been told that I can have nothing to drink until...

This has been an interesting day. I arrived at the hospital on time. I kept waiting to sign a paper stating I would not hold the hospital responsible if I died, but that doc was never placed in front of me. They gave my wife a restaurant thingy, You know, the one you get at the Red Lobster or the Outback when your table is ready, but instead of a table, it was the one you get when your husband is ready. I thought it was funny that I was having gastric bypass, and my wife was given a restaurant thingy....
