Had final mtg with surgeon before surgery -- scheduled for June 6. Was able to cut 4 days off liquid diet (10 days instead of 14...WHOOP WHOOP!) because I lost some weight since my first dr's visit...

The countdown has begun!!!

15 days!!!

. Mine was at the hospital but in a separate area with sleep number beds and TV.

They look like real small hotel rooms. It'll be fine..

NiqueJ...you were awake for yours?

Yes I was. They sprayed numbing meds in my nose and throat. I was given the option for a mild sedative, but I didn't bring anyone with me. That should be an option... Check in that.

June 17th for me - lapband revision. I should be excited but I'm not - after failure with the band' date=' just hoping to find something that works for me.[/quote']

I am so there with you. I too am revising my lap band. I am afraid of this failing, but also excited at having another chance. I lost 114 pounds with the lap bands. Got the flu and threw up 8 times in 6 hours. I would take the phenergan and then throw it up again. Manger to slip the band out of place. Then gained 50 back. Went through 5 months of take all the Fluid out, put in, take it out.... I just ready to be done with that and embrace the sleeve.

Uugghhh surgery date changed to June 11th 2 days after I started my preop :(

You can do this ..just a small delay when there are many people not fortunate enough to get the surgery done. ..remember your cup is half full not half empty...

Started my two week liquid diet this morning! Omg, I'm already starving. It really plays with your mind, knowing you can't eat. Lord, give me strength to make it thru.

It will get better after a few days. Keep focused and stay in control of your brain. You will definately notice how many food commercials are on TV!

      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!!
