My dad was 46 when he died of heart attack another reason i want this surgery i am only 3 years younger then he was when he died

Well i did it surgery is Monday and now 268.8 start out 287

I do on Monday. have to be at hospital at 10 with surgery at noon. and this big Frankenstorm heading my way then.

I was approved last Monday for surgery on the 29th of October and then Thursday I started getting sick so I haven't been able to enjoy the approval yet LOL.

I am excited about tomorrow. Haven't had surgery yet but I know in the morning I may be in the 260's. Started out at 287 7 months ago. Today weigh 271.4

Well I have been sick since Thursday. Woke up Friday could barely talk sore throat cough. Had a terrible pre op today couldn't hear my ears were totally clogged up. All the perfume in the small room from all the other women didn't help so was torture trying not to cough but got through that part. Then went to hospital for pre admission testing got all the way through the ekg blood work speaking with nurse and had to see Physician assistant and wouldn't you know I couldn't hear a thing I couldn't quit coughing. She looked in both ears saw they were red but not infected saw the post nasal drip that was causing the throat soreness and irritation. So she said to start taking Claritin and dry it up because if it isn't they wont he able to do surgery. Is there any other ideas y'all have that can help?

Today is my first day. Surgery on the 29th. I could have gotten by with today being a normal food day since the pre op wasn't till this morning but I went ahead and said what the hey and just do it. It is very hard and you have to be very determined to stay on track that's for sure. But at least my liquid consist of phase 1 and phase 2 so I can have strained cream soup and cottage cheese

Pre op done. Pre admission testing at hospital done!! Liquid diet started. Now going to sleep lol

I am proud to have this surgery and I have shouted it from the mountain tops. And if I can help others by my process makes me feel even better

I haven't had surgery yet but could you possibly came down with strep throat or something? I know you can have this without pain.

Ugh so sleepy!! Only an hour and a half sleep. Have to leave in an hour and half for pre op this morning.

My pre op is a 2 hour educational class with the nurse practitioner and I think from there I go to the hospital to register and speak to anesthesiologists. I don't think I will see the surgeon again till day of

Thanks jny same too you!! I go in the morning for my pre op. I am sure starting Wednesday I will be on a liquid diet.

Body fortress has 30 grams in one scoop. I have not really tried different protein drinks I was using EAS then tries the body fortress and love them. But it may change after surgery lol

Nice going Jenn!!! Before you know it you will be in onederland!!!

I pray he has a quick recovery and continued progress please take care of you too so that you will be able to take care of him

I have seen on here where people have lost well over 150 pounds

Good luck all having surgery today and Sarah pre op. I go for my pre op tomorrow morning. Dreading it because I am not a morning person at all!!

Hi jny and welcome. I also will be having the rny on the 29th. I have a hiatal hernia as well but I am.not sure of it will be fixed then or not. I am sure it will though as that is when most get fixed

Good luck to all having surgery this week!! I am sorry I haven't been posting much but I have been sick since Thursday night. If it doesn't get better in the morning I will try to get in with pcp. But I think it's just a cold my ears are stopped IP and my throat hurts and I have a little cough I think its all due to post nasal drip even though I am not all clogged up. But surgeryis next monday so no time to second guess this cold stuff

I was suppose to start October 7th. Still haven't. Wish it would because the cramps and my boobs have never hurt so bad so I can tell it's going to be a bad one. I just have a feeling its going to wait till surgery

I am having mine in Charleston and every Tuesday they do their pre op education class. So their next class is on the 23rd and my surgery is the following Monday.

Where are you having your surgery at?

Did you get released today
