I'm with Dr Oldham at Baptist East. Did you struggle with the pre-op diet?

How are you doing? How much weight have you lost?

I did not have to do a preop I have lost 65 lbs since april 20 more to go. I have not had any complications have not gotten sick and did not have any pain. So far it has been a breeze I can eat anything I try to keep my carbs around 40 my calories around 800 and Protein 80grams I followed everything the dr. said. The only thing I need to work on is exercising. How much do you have to lose. Out will be worth it I promise

Thanks for the encouragement! I have about 125lbs to loose. My Lord it sounds like a lot. The pre-op diet is kicking my butt.

It's great that you have done so well. I hope I'm the same way.

Wow! Why did you go to Mexico? I've noticed several people having surgery there. How did things go? Any complications?

I went to mexico for the price of the surgery. I have a low bmi compared to most and insurance wouldn't touch me here in the states, and the cost in the states can be up to 3-4 times as much. It was a fun experience, we stayed in San Diego, had a good 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!!
