Just drank my last Protein Shake pre surgery!!! Clear liquids only tomorrow and surgery 7:30 am Wednesday!! Nervous and Excited!

Was banded today (out patient) and not much discomfort. Left shoulder ache using heating pad helps 100%. A hiatal hernia was aslo fixed and more discomfort in the area. Taking liquid pain meds for hernia. Prior to hospital release I walked many minutes with a nurse.

My doctor didnt want me to use ice chnips for 24 hours. I see him on followup in 2 weeks.

Be positive and your day will be here soon.

Be positive and follow any and all doctor directions pre-op. Makes band day easy. Mine was easy. Very little discomfort except hernia repair. Banded 8 hours ago.

I am being banded on the 10th. Doing good on the pre-op diet, but getting nervous on the surgery.

Just stay focused on what you are doing on Pre-op by eating right. I will be a 100% boost in your recovery state. Lots of Protein and take all your Vitamins. Have gas-x, Liquid Tylenol just in case. Make sure you have a heating pad and know where it is. I plugged mine on one day and checked it out. Have ice cubes for blender ready. Any food panty shelves, please use those for your lapand food items. For a few days you won"t feel like bending over, believe me. Being single, I purchased a pickup objects from Walgreen. It's mostly used by people who cant bend over and picks up lots of things off the floor/rub.

Best wishes on you day. It will be here quickly!

      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!!
