We are the angels on your shoulder today, Beth. You have suffered so much. I'm so glad today has finally come for you, and that the GB weighs a heavy pound, that you can put this into history, where it belongs.

HUGS!

hehehehe...thank you Claire. I know I'll come out weighing heavier just because of those darn IV fluids but we shall see. I'm afraid that gallbladder will have to be 2 pounds now. That darn scale is totally stuck back on 152.

It sure would be so cool though if this whole experience would bring me to goal or just under it....it would be such a wonderful gift for my body to give this to me.

The other morning the scale flashed 149.5. I gave a little jump and screech, ran into the other room for my camera. Jumped back on and it was 152!

*pout*

So, Nyn I know how you feel and NOPE the camera doesn't weigh 2.5 pounds. I checked. *L*

Thanks all. Sheeesh....the time is dragging here this morning. 2 more hours and I am out of here. I'm supposed to be at the hospital at 2pm. I'm hurting this morning though tolerable. I'm glad it isn't worse since I can't take anything for pain. I'm feeling totally drugged up though. I was in so much pain last night and pretty anxious that I took 2 vicodan, a phenergan (for nausea) along with a Lunesta DH had. I knocked right out for 4 hours exactly and then was awake and getting uncomfortable again. I only had 1 more hour before I had to stop drinking so took 2 more vicodan and another lunesta and slept good another 4 hours.

Claire, I know all of the Vicodan is constipating me. I've been taking Senna right along with it all but my bm is still like a bunch of little rocks (stmo )

.....I just want to feel better. I know things will be good on the other side but for now, I'm afraid I've been rather depressed and emotional. I've been trying to just keep it to myself but my blood pressure is showing the strain. It's back to being really quite high....like pre-wls high. Not good at all....hopefully it doesn't make them put off the surgery. I did check it myself though this morning and though still higher than my norm it was acceptable.
