I've been active on a couple of the other forums but just wanted to stop in and introduce myself and say Hi. I'm one week down in the liquid diet and a week out from surgery.

I'm both excited and nervous all at the same time...

Hi ..same for me @HansSolo1977! My surgery is on 9/1 ..this is my 6th day of liquid diet and I am 5'1" Last Friday I was 203lbs at pre op Dr visit, today I weighed 196 at hospital pre op testing. Scared and nervous too, but some of the before and after pics on here are so inspirational.. It's a great motivator! Good Luck next week!

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

        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!!
