Okay I took my breath test for h.pylori and I won't find out if I am having surgery until the day of surgery. I am so bummed out. I can't wait anoher 2 or 3 weeks for surgery. However, I think it is harder waiting until the day before surgery to find out if it will happened. What symptoms if any did anyone have after taking the liquid and breath test for h.pylori?

My surgery date is July 30th and I am so anxious. I have been watching YouTube videos of others surgury experience and it's pretty amazing to see the weight drop off each week.

Hey Patrick, I KNOW- what is with our July 2nd date? It seems to be WILDLY popular! I keep hoping it is because it falls on a mystically auspicious day for surgery...

I have been doing the OMFG freaking out dance for a few days now...

Patrick I'm so excited for you. I was just reading your "weight through the ages" and your motivators. I can't imaging the struggles you have been through all of your life. This truly will be you "INDEPENDENCE DAY"!!!

Good luck to you on Monday. You will be in my prayers. I'm looking forward to reading your posts.

Just got done with my egd I swear I was shaking I was so nervous. Then I bit down in something and next thing I know I'm being woken up then transferred to recovery.

No pain or nausea' date=' hardly felt like anything even happened. Dont know why I was freaking out so bad.[/quote']

Seems awfully close to your surgery date. I had mine in early May and surgery isn't until 7/24. Good thing because they found a small esophageal ulcer so I've been on Nexium since then to help repair it before surgery. Hope everything is all clear!

My egd went okay no ulcers or hernias I'm as always fit as a fiddle except for the extra 400+ pounds. My weight makes me more high risk but my weird lack of co morbities lowers the risk so I guess it's about even lol. My doctor said I'd probably have major health issues in next 5 years, that was in 2008.

My biggest issues? Are all more quality of life issues. I have confidence my surgery will go well since I'm in pretty good shape internally, but that does not mean I'm not super nervous and freaking out this weekend.

      On day 4 of the 2 week liquid pre-op diet. Surgery scheduled for June 11th.
      Soooo I am coming to a realization
      of something and I'm not sure what to do about it. For years the only thing I've enjoyed is eating. We rarely do anything or go anywhere and if we do it always includes food. Family comes over? Big family dinner! Go camping? Food! Take a short ride or trip? Food! Holiday? Food! Go out of town for a Dr appointment? Food! When we go to a new town we don't look for any attractions, we look for restaurants we haven't been to. Heck, I look forward to getting off work because that means it's almost supper time. Now that I'm drinking these pre-op shakes for breakfast, lunch, and supper I have nothing to look forward to.  And once I have surgery on June 11th it'll be more of the same shakes. Even after pureed stage, soft food stage, and finally regular food stage, it's going to be a drastic change for the rest of my life. I'm giving up the one thing that really brings me joy. Eating. How do you cope with that? What do you do to fill that void? Wow. Now I'm sad.

        Life as a big person had limited my life to what I knew I could manage to do each day. That was eat. I hadn't anything else to look forward to. So my eating choices were the best I could dream up. I planned the cooking in managable lots in my head and filled my day with and around it.

        Now I have a whole new big, bigger, biggest, best days ever. I am out there with those skinny people doing stuff i could never have dreamt of. Food is now an after thought. It doesn't consume my day. I still enjoy the good home cooked food but I eat smaller portions. I leave food on my plate when I am full. I can no longer hear my mother's voice saying eat it all up, ther are starving children in Africa who would want that!

        I still cook for family feasts, I love cooking. I still do holidays but I have changed from the All inclusive drinking and eating everything everyday kind to Self catering accommodation. This gives me the choice of cooking or eating out as I choose. I rarely drink anymore as I usually travel alone now and I feel I need to keep aware of my surroundings.

        I don't know at what point my life expanded, was it when I lost 100 pounds? Was it when I left my walking stick at home ? Was it when I said yes to an outing instead of finding an excuse to stay home ? i look back at my last five years and wonder how loosing weight has made such a difference. Be ready to amaze yourself.

        BTW, the liquid diet sucks, one more day and you are over the worst. You can do it.

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!
