Hi Jessie, do you have to fast from midnight till after surgery? I don't know my time till the day before so this Sunday afternoon they will call me. I hope it's early in the morning I get severe shakes and headaches if I don't eat Breakfast.< /p>

Kcamp...I'm doing better, thank you for asking. I just called and for my surgery time. Its tomorrow at 1pm, so my arrival time is 11am. I'm feeling much better knowing that there's a high probability of my "stroke level" blood pressure decreasing, my diabetes being resolved and my severe back pain subsiding. How are you?

I'm hanging in. Counting the days! Thanks.

Do you have to do a bowel prep?? My surgery is Monday, they said they'd call on Friday. But I can only have liquids and my laxative on Sunday:-( yuk. Good luck to you, I hope to hear how great we are all feeling next weekend!

I have surgery Monday as well and I don't have to do a bowel prep at all. I am just having a hard time keeping my sugar up. It's been in the low 70's all day. Any advice to keep it up. My surgeon wants me to eat yogurt, sf fudge sickles and sf pudding but nothing is doing the trick.

I had a 2 day bowel prep called MoviPrep. It didn't work until 4 hours later. I had the worst abdominal cramps BUT it worked and that's all that matters.

Oh wow, I didn't realize some people have to do it for 2 days. I drink my Moviprep tomorrow starting at 6 pm. I couldn't imagine having to drink it for 2 days.

I drank it in October and I gulped it down as fast as I could to get it over with. Lol. I'm not looking forward to it again.

I am 3 days post op and still so very sore. I had the open RNY so I didn't expect to bounce back so fast, but my ribs are hurting so bad I feel like I've been hit by a car! I have my follow up today so hopefully I get to go home to my own comfy bed :)

Was the open RNY your choice or were there circumstances involved?

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
