    Had surgery today! It went so smoothly. I ended up having a hiatal hernia they had to repair. I was also confused b/c i have been on the preop diet for 14 days to shrink my liver and she said my liver was enlarged!!! Anyway, I am home and doing okay. It is more painful than I thought it would be, but not too bad.

    I would! Is it on the forum or on fb? I started preop diet yesterday (surgery 6/19) and i am STARVING! It is going to be a long few weeks. I have told some people, but I am not going to blab about it. I am afraid of yet another "diet" not working and I don't want people watching me like a hawk!

    Man o man I am day 10 going on 11 day preop and i feel like crap! It feels like my body is just wearing down i am assuming from lack of food. It doesn't help that i am due for my period next week so i am achy b/c of that as well. I am kind of having pain in my lower back, is anyone else? Trying to decide if i am not drinking enough water or what the deal is. How is everyone else holding up? Surgery is tuesday for me!!!
