I'm on the 19th. The only thing that really freaks me out is the possibility of going home with tubes and drains in me. Makes me quezy...

I got rescheduled today to tomorrow. I felt the same way and so I asked the doctor about it. He said he no longer uses the drains because he had so many people with complications from them. He says he realized people didn't need them. So I'm excited about that. But good luck for you, I'm sure everything will be fine.. :)

Its really not that bad just more uncomfortable and hard to hide under your shirt I had my surgery in 12-3 & went home on 12-11 with my drain tube but I get it removed tomorrow at my post op appt... But the drain was best for me because of my complication just to keep track if something was leaking inside me

Simply Southern,

How is everything now? Hope you are feeling good. Can't believe I'm up tomorrow!! Excited... And right now peaceful. Hope I can continue to stay calm. Everyone here has been awesome for encouragement and information leading up to surgery. Many thanks!

Good luck for those having surgery today. It was a breeze. The pain isn't all that bad ( but that could be the morphine talking). Lol

So far I'm doing great and am on the right track from what my surgeon said... they removed my drainage port which hurt but feels better now and I have lost all my weight I gained in the hospital plus some off my pre op weight so a total loss right now of 61 lbs

Hi I'm new to this my date is the 26th of this month but I'm so not keepin up wit this liquid diet scared to death

I know I wasn't perfect on it. It just helps to prepare your body for the surgery by decreasing the size of the liver that way your liver will shrink some and has a better chance of not getting "nicked." I guess what I'm saying do your best on the preop diet keeping in mind that it is best for you.

:-) Dec 15th New me and life begins ;-)

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

        That's brilliant! You've done amazing!! I should probably think about changing my profile picture at some point. Mine is the doll from Squid Games. Ironically the whole premise of the show is about dodging death. We've both done that...

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?
