Anyone know if I can take Benadryl during these 2 weeks pre op diet? It helps mee sleep. I forgot to ask my doctor.

Thanks! I'm finding myself more at ease just reading y'alls comments.

Best of luck to you!

I agree. I also think, there is no easy way. This surgery is tough. Many sacrifices and lots of will power. That takes a strong person. I'm still going to work out and eat less. I just need a jump start!

THANK YOU! It would really help ease my anxiety to communicate with someone who has gone through this. It's very kind of you.

I hope this is not a stupid question, but why 2 times? Any tips to avoid having it twice?

I'm having the Da Vinci Robotic Surgery. But I don't know much about it.

Has everyone here had the laparoscopic surgery or open procedure? How about the Da Vinci Robotic Surgery?

Thanks.

Hello! My name is Josie. I am new here and I'm finding this forum quite helpful. My surgery is set for August 14th. It's all going so fast. I guess because I'm a self pay. Can anyone tell me what is more painful, this surgery or giving birth? I just saw a YouTube video where the poor girl complained of excruciating pain. I instantly thought, oh no I must cancel:( However, I have already paid some of the fee. Bottom line, I'm scared as heck! I have never been hospitalized!

I'm scared also. It will be twice as hard for me, because I take a med that increases my appetite. However, I'm determined to get this weight off! I'm going to try my hardest. I'd like to keep myself busy because I eat more when I'm bored.
