Good Luck to you both! Wedding Anniversary and Sleeversary will now be within days of each other!! Not much true celebrating likely this year since I'll be freshly discharged........but based on the feedback I'm hearing from fellas on here....2015 might require a trip to a secluded island with Wifey!!!! She's sleeving soon also....so should be a great celebration next year!!!!!

Yep, that was my thought too. I figured I'd get the party started and she would see that it will be better if we both change together.

Good luck guys, Who was taking the lead in suggesting you both went through the procedure? That will be great for support as you get out there walking after the procedure and for designing menus as you progress.

Yes, my daughter (adult) acted as my monitor and kept me on the path of sticking to the diet and getting my walks in every day. Pre-surgery liquid diet just got me used to living off liquids for a while and I lost 20lbs in three weeks on it. Good luck and shrink that liver.

      I hope everyone is having a lovely week so far! 
      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      Well, tomorrow I go in for an impromptu hiatal hernia repair after ending up in the ER over the weekend because I couldn't get food down and water was moving at a trickle... I've been having these symptoms on and off for a few weeks but Sunday was the worst by far and came with chest pain and trouble breathing. The ER PA thinks it is just esophagitis and that the surgeon and radiologist are wrong. But the bariatric surgeon swears it is a hernia, possibly a sliding one based on my symptoms. So he fit me into his schedule this week to repair it! I hope he's right and this sorts it out. He's going to do a scope afterwards to be sure there is nothing wrong with the esophagus. Here's hoping it all goes well!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
