  1. Good luck to you. I have my surgery on April 23rd.
  2. I don't think there's anything to worry about. My doctor said most overweight people have them. Once we lose the weight it might correct it self if it's not that big.
  3. I start my pre op diet on April 9th. I know it's gonna be hard but I'm gonna try and stick to it. I stopped all of the snacks and goodies two weeks ago to prepare myself for this. I have the Adkins shakes theyre pretty good. You should try them. Also special k has protein water. Good luck.
  4. Wow I'm glad your doing good for all that you've had one. My surgery date is April 23rd. I have a hiatal hernia I wonder if he's gonna remove it. I'll have to ask. When I had my endoscopy done the doctor told me I had a small one.
