I thought it was funny!!
Thought I'd share my humour on op day!
When I'm nervous and anxious I tend to be extrovert to compensate feeling awkward, let me give you an example!
Due to the lack of bariatric gowns for theatre they gave me two (one to cover my back whilst I walked to theatre.
I commented it looked like a super hero cape and when I walked into anaesthetic room I swooped in holding the cape out and saying "I'm Steve Murray and I've just flown down from the second floor!!"
The two nurses in full srubs just smiled and the anaesthetist just said "If you'd like to lie on the table Stephen!"
#Some fell on stony ground!

My hubby is going to be so disappointed ...when I told him that you have to wear special stockings for several weeks post op he became strangely excited .... Don't know how I break it to him that they are actually to the knee ones hehehe
So happy for the pair of you and its brilliant that you are so supportive of each other x

Had two issues over the weekend!
One after eating my pureed chicken dinner, did my usual slow teaspoon feed rate but I get a tight ball type feeling in my chest if I go too quick. This happened so I usually wait several minutes for it to ease. It didn't seem to want to go down and I thought a drink would help! Ooops, my first sick incident.
Second issue was putting on the dreaded surgical stockings! Was bent over pulling the bleeders on when I felt sharp pulling pain in my main port wound! This has made it tender again when getting up out of the chair.
Other than that am doing well.
Janet is eating well as per mushy stage and doesn't have the issues I have with having to eat really slow. Must be the difference between bypass and my sleeve?
Janet is struggling with head hunger more than me and keeps mithering for the scales!!!
Onward and downward (weight that is!!)

Had a strange incident this weekend!
After my morning shower went into bedroom and began looking through my clothes and picked out several t shirts and tried them on before deciding which one looked best!!!
I have only had the choice of three for the last twelve months and usually grabbed which ever one was on the top of the pile!!
Omg I've started to be bothered again about what I am wearing!!
Think I'm changing into George Clooney!!! lol
(Janet says George from rainbow!!)
