Okay guys...its that time!!! I could not sleep last night just thinking about surgery. I should hear by 10am what time I have to be at the hospital tomorrow. Now im so nervous I cant think straight. All I can think about are the things that could go wrong...before and after surgery. I keep asking myself if im making the right choice. Which I know I am doing the right thing. I know that this is the begining of my new life. Is this normal to feel this way? Or is it a sign? Thanks for letting shar emy fear.

You will do good on your surgery and a new You will appear on the other side. Look at the tickers on the posters, WE are all losing weight together. You can also do it by following your doctor's orders and understanding how to eat for future weight loss and good health. It's now about You!

Best wishes and Keep the Faith

      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!!

      Having gall bladder surgery in a few days and I so hope the recovery is easier than the one from the modified DS! I could use a bit of luck/pep talk for a change. I'm starting to be able to walk around without experiencing dizziness, but it would be great if the random pain in my chest and abdomen would go away!!
