I'm set up for February 4th. Seems like forever away. People keep telling me, "oh don't worry". It bugs me cause I'm not worried. What seems to keep popping in my head is, am I doing the right thing.

I would like to here what others are thinking, going through.

My Doctors plan is two days preop clear liquid, not 10 like I've been reading on here. Anyone else similar?

Thanks,

Kimo

You will do great poetikjay. It's not all that bad. And it's amazing how much better you feel in such a short time. My son swears I look skinnier already. I'm praying for you sweetie!!

Aww thanks hun. Glad you're doing well! You can call me Jay :-)

Heelloooo to all. This is my first post. It's been very helpful reading all of your posts. My surgery is scheduled for Feb 19 in Tijuana, Mexico. I'm not nervous but very anxious to get it done. I'm on pre-op diet now. Starting weight 328 currently I am 314 goal weight for surgery is 307. I start liquids next week. I'll keep u guys posted n my experience. Keep the tips coming!!

I am hunched over in pain from the gas and I don't know what I can do more to get it out I have tried Gas X, and walking!

I am in so much gas pain my self my shoulders feel like a ton of bricks are on my shoulders. I'm just gonna continue to walk and pray. I will pray for you to I know how much it hurts.

Walk and heating pad

And deep breathe! In thru the nose out thru the mouth slow and easy!!

Well I'm finally on the losers bench . The surgery went well, they found the hernia and repaired it. I have no regrets at all. I'm not hungry, nor do I crave food. My mom passed by and had one of my fav dishes and I didn't even care I forgot until now. I have so much gas pain its to much. I have walked and walked and walked. Little by little it goes away. The morphine was a big help. No vomiting no nausa no itching thank God. I got one more night here and I'm going home can't wait. I pray tht everyone on here has a safe a speedy recoverery. :-)

Glad to hear you are on the mend. It's easier every day! I came home today....love my bed. Try a heading pad. It works great for gas pains. And deep breathe.
