LOL, I'm certainly not superwoman. Sorry to hear you have to get your gall bladder out too. That's like insult to injury. :( I hope you have a speedy recovery from both. My surgeon and PCP are pushing me to push my GYN about getting the softball sized fibroid removed now. I've been kinda telling...

I did Karenina :) I only had a limited amount of time off to use plus I work a desk job that I have the great fortune of being able to do from home. So technically I'm back on the payroll as of 8/12 but I'm not actually venturing into the office until the week of 8/26. My office is an hour from...

I think I'm finding out that bloating is coming from using milk in my shakes. I tried them today with just water and it's been a better day so far. Not quite as tasty this way but alas I have to pick the lesser of two evils to deals with.

LOL, that was a good chuckle. I don't mind really. He's been a super help and support all this week ( and up to now too) with all he's doing around the house that I can't just yet.

well I've hit the one week mark :) Yay me! I'm struggling a bit with the water/fluid intake though, I'm just so bloated. Feels yucky and is keeping me from drinking as a result. The protein shakes are going down just fine, enjoying them to be honest. Starting to miss eating foods though, cooking...

Thanks Hunger Buddy! That's awesome that you're 2 days away - Good luck! I've been up walking since Wed at the hospital and now that I'm home I keep doing laps around the living room and hall way. I ventured on to the treadmill yesterday for about 20 minutes at a real low speed. They were right...

It went really well the doctor said, I spent an extra day in the hospital but I'm home now. Sore but in good spirits. :) Thanks for thinking about me, that made me feel good.

Woohoo! I'm home and resting. Had to spend an extra day in the hospital but it's all good. Thanks for the prayers and wells wishes. :)

It's finally here...now I'm starting to get a bit nervous.:) Tomorrow morning have to be at the hospital at 7:15am and I've been on clear liquids all day. Not so bad but I've had to keep my mind busy on other things to avoid feeling the hunger. It's all kind of surreal at this point, I've spent...

Awesome way to look at this Mimi! I'm just heading into my 2 week pre-op and you're post is perfectly stated. Good luck with your surgery!

Good luck today!

Good luck today!:o

Thanks everyone :) I just keep telling myself I'm almost there. I've been doing just like you suggested Dreamz - cleared off the treadmill and I've been on it at least 3-5 days each week.

Chin up dking! You're come this far and it will be here before you know. I feel your pain, I thought I was going to be early July myself and then insurance changes plus vacationing surgeon has put me out to 8/6. But it's all good! We'll all get to our day and be stronger for it. :) Nice work on...

So happy...we finally scheduled my surgery. 8/6...seems so far away still but I've already been waiting since December. Had to do my 6 months of dietary and now my employer decided to change insurance starting 7/1 to Cigna, so that pushed us out another month to allow for the paperwork that is...
