Just 12 hours until surgery. It almost doesn't seem real. Ready to be on the other side. My pre-op diet was pretty lenient so it wasn't terrible. I hope there will not be too much pain after.

I am looking forward to seeing how everyone is doing after surgery!

My surgery is tomorrow also!!! I have to be there at 730 am!! Getting nervous a little!! Good luck to everyone :-)

OMG. YAY...were almost there. I can't believe the day has finally come. I would love to hear how yalls surgery went and keep track of your progress since were all on the same day. Good luck to both of you. :)

I started my pre op today..it was very hard and my head hurt most of the day. I am very stressed right now and its hard to focus on being excited about the surgery.

I was like that the first few days also but it gets better. I'm 4 days out from surgery still nervous but physically feeling better. I think it was sugar withdrawals and the drastic change of eating. Good luck

Well tomorrow marks a week since I had surgery, and I have to say I am feeling pretty good. Im still tired every now and then, but over all i haven't had any issues. All the stari-strips are gone... and my tummy still looks like it went a few rounds with a boxer, but over all... this was cake. Mmmm cake.

Tomorrow I see my Doctor for my postop visit, and im guessing we will move on to mushies.... :) pureed Soups and smoothies also SF Popsicle have been my meal of choice when I want to eat. I can get a cup of stuff down at a time, just have to remember to eat slow, The burping kills. OMG.

Also, it still is sore to take a full breath, expand lungs to full, cause of incisions still healing, and maybe the other stuff that got moved in side during surgery.

I have also been sleeping on my side,kinda front since Monday. Found a heated throw worked good for the gas pains,if I wrapped it around my left shoulder, and over my tummy.

Ooo and haven't taken any pain meds (or 4 advil at night per my doctor) since Tuesday.

I hope you are all doing well, and if you have questions ask=)

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
