I'm dreading the 2 week pre op diet during the holidays. It will be worth it though!

My date is January 6th. I'm Super excited and super nervous. I keep reading more and more information on the procedure and the results. I hear lots of good and some not so good. Truely hoping this will be the answer to my weight loss issues.

I'm 28 and live in Israel. I'm from Boca Raton Fl but moved here 3 1/2 years ago. Im married with two children who are my angels. I've struggled w my weight since I was around 6. I've been on endless diets and have dealt w an eating disorder for 11 years. I'm sick of my weight going up and down. I figure if this is the one area in my life that I'm not happy w then I need to make a change. I sooo welcome this challenge.

      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!!
