Thank you very much. I finish up my pre-surgery work schedule with not too much the next two days followed by a morning of court on Wednesday before taking the afternoon off and getting ready to drive to Richmond. I'll be recovering at my parents' house in the area, and I assure you all that I will be well connected to Internet and updating you. Heck, I hope to be like some others who manage an update the evening of my surgery date!

Good luck to everyone!

I'm getting nervous, surgery on Friday 12th. I'm scheduled to see the nutritionist, surgeon, and have my breathing test on Thursday. Usually you do this 2 weeks prior to surgery. I'm sure I'll be glad to see them on Thursday and then the next morning have surgery. Only bad thing is I don't know what time on Friday my surgery is scheduled for.

Good luck to everyone else this week.

Thanks for thinking of us. I'm getting excited/nervous about tomorrow's surgery. I'm also trying to stop myself from having second thoughts. Sigh... let's just get this show on the road. Come tomorrow morning at 8 am, I'll be on the table and on my way to a new life!!

This was my comment on another post, I mean it enough to copy & paste it!

Good luck to all of you having your surgery this week... I'm so green with envy! I'm on hoop 5 of 6 that I have to jump through for insurance, ahem, oops I meant month 5 of 6 physician supervised visits, ha ha ha. Can't wait to get my date & the excitement that comes the night before that I'm sure you're all experiencing. Can't wait even more for the wonderful life that awaits after. Keep us posted we're living this experience through your words for the next few weeks.

Sad news today. My grandma passed away just last night. I'm alll the way in Louisiana and she's in Philly. Needless to say I am postponing surgery a little while. Hopefully I will be a September sleever. Good luck to everyone on their journey!

I'm so very sorry about your grandma phatgurl80, and the fact that you will need to postpone your surgery must also be very difficult. My heart goes out to you.

Thanks everyone for your thoughts and prayers! Grandma will be laid to rest shortly, but she will forever be with us in spirit. Rescheduled my surgery for the first week in September. Thanks again for everyone's kindness and I'll be sure to keep updating everyone on my Sleeve Journey.

        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!!

      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!!
