Today I started my pre-op diet for surgery with Dr Aceves next Friday. I worked last night, and I'm not much of a cook, but I decided to make some bacon and eggs for Breakfast. It smelled sooooooo good, my 24 year old son woke up and had breakfast with me at 6AM!!! Hmmmmm....unexpected benefit?!:biggrin0:

Well wasn't that a pleasant surprise ... I don't know if even the smell of eggs and bacon would have been enough to get either of my boys out of bed!

Good luck on your diet. I started mine today too. Are you going by yourself? Judy

That is great! My son will usually get up early, but nothing gets my daughter up before noon on weekends. I swear, she sleeps half her life away.

Ernesto is a pretty cool guy, but his driving scared the bejeebers out of me!! Concentrate on the beautiful scenery along the way, lol.

Yes, I am going alone. My son is taking me to where I will be picked up by Ernesto, at the long term parking lot just this side of the border. You?

It's not too bad if you're being picked up in Calexico -- the hospital is very near the border so you're really not in the van very long -- and the trip from the hospital to the resort is only 2 miles. Now, can't speak of the trip from San Diego, as we were picked up at the AA Parking lot in Caleixco. Parking was only $3/day and it is gated with a guard 24/7 which was a comfort.

      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!!
