Guest guest Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 Hi Mel, Your such a sweetheart, I'll let you know what time the op is at, as I'm seeing the Dr on Wednesday. It will be so nice see someone who has gone through what I will go throught just before or after the op.

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2006 Report Share Posted May 21, 2006 Hi Ronnii I found sitting ok – but you will need to get up and move a bit if you have been sitting for too long (otherwise it can hurt) But that should be ok. My dr only said about driving “you will know when you can drive” (very “on the fence” comment that!!) – but I do drive a manual – so if you have an auto, I am sure it might be ok. The anesthetic knocked me around and I slept a lot in the first couple of days – but from what I understand it effects different people in different ways. Hopefully this helps J A nail artist?? I might have to come and visit you I think!! That is one of my first goals, I have decided – getting some nails for once in my life – that would be so nice!

Apart from working full time, I'm also a nail artist and I have clients starting from Friday (1 only friday) and then back to normal on saturday. Do you think I'll be fine just sitting and doing nails??? I need to drive to the salon but it's only a 10 min drive?

Guest guest Posted May 23, 2006 Report Share Posted May 23, 2006 Hi Cherie, Just got back to the office now!!! Your right! He is a very nice man and he explained everything. Apparently I thought I was going to the SAN Hospital but I'm going to the Hills Private instead. He did offer to do the operation at the SAN but not till 22nd June....... forget that!!! The hills will do!!! I also went to the hills and gave them my admin forms, I think reality is hitting me now!!! He said that for the 1st 3 weeks I can only have a mush diet then the 4th week I can eat what my hubby eats then I need to see him for my 1st fill. is no nice... isn't she??? She did pass on your message to say " Hi " . Oh, Cherie I'm getting butterflies....LOL I told the Doc that I had a dinner party to go to!! (But I don't) and asked if I could eat... his replay was " I won't if I was you, you've come so far on Optifast " What should I do?? I really feel like chinese!!!

Guest guest Posted May 28, 2006 Report Share Posted May 28, 2006 I ended up losing almost 6 kilos but over the last 2.5 days I think I've probably put back on 2 kilos. I need to be at the hospital at 6am.
