I've got two days left before my surgery. The prep diet has gone well' date=' down 14#. I'm hungry and there has been lots of temptation but its short term and it will make the surgery go better, so not a big deal. Here's the weird part, being a guy I am used to my dreams being driven by my baser instincts. My dreams are mostly testosterone fueled adventures, think action movie / porn. So the last few nights it seems my brain has a taken a turn from the usual having sex while driving through explosions on a high-speed car chase to the food channel. Yes ladies and gents, I am dreaming about food and not healthy food. I can't recall ever having a food dream but I've got them now. So I guess if fat guy can't have his way when I'm awake, he's going to pig out in my dreams. Of course one of them was hotdogs chasing donuts so the testosterone is still there on some level.[/quote']

I can't stop laughing. My dreams may be worse. Food fight with me having eaten everything before the fight begins lol. All the best to you with your surgery.

In the "for what it's worth department" - went to the movies this morning, and speed my way through an entire 20 oz. bottle of flavored water without any pain. Not bad for being 5 days post op, I think!

I am new to this forum but I am scheduled for surgery on July 17th. I'm excited and nervous all at the same time. However, the excitement outweighs the nervousness. So looking forward to a healthier me!

Speed should have been sipped, of course, but the point is the same :)

I'm so glad to hear you're having similar success, Phoenix! Yay, us!

I'm July 15 th too. I will not find out what time my surgery is at until 6pm on Sunday. I have the preop testing at the hospital and medical clearance this week. Has anyone's surgery been postponed based on the hospital testing?

I feel the same way when drinking liquids that I can drink it pretty fast. I had a pureed thicker Soup & that went down slow but liquid goes pretty smooth & I'm 5 days out. Thought there was something wrong with me!!

      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!!
