    Default Still waiting

    I wish I could say I have joined the sleeved side,...... but I am still waiting. I was scheduled for 10 am this morning and it is now 11pm. Can you say hungry and cracky. I havent had any liquards since 4 pm yesterday......If it wasnt for bad luck, I wouldnt have any at all...... The only thing that is stopping me from leaving is nowing that if I did, I would never do it again, knowing how hard the last 3 days have been on a clear liquird diet and today with nothing in my stomach....fingers crossed that I get it down by midnight.... I truely know what hungry pains are and told my husband when I get out, I am going to donate food to the food bank on a weekly bases, in hopes that noone has to go hungry......maybe with this blog I can get all of you to do the same.

    I hope all goes smoothly once it is your turn. I know you don't want to wait until morning but it might be better to let the doctor have a rest before he gets to you. Sorry things didn't go as planned.

    Date of surgery weight 340
    12 week checkup 301 BMI <50 yeah!
