Glad you two are doing well and not in too much pain :). Did they offer you any liquids? My doc. Said I would only get Water and ice chips the first day.

I only got ice chip so far but only until midnight because they are going to check if there is and leakage today I'm hoping it's soon that they run this test, since my throat is getting dry!

My surgery is in two days. I'm a little nervous, but trying to stay positive. I've convinced myself something is going to go wrong. I'm a worrier like that. Good to see so many people in the same boat though!

UPDATE!!! Received a call from my Surgeons office and they have moved my surgery from the 17th to the 12th. Starting my liquid diet Friday THIS Friday. I'm not going to lie, I instantly panicked and walked in circles, talking to my self for about 5 mins, then kicked myself in the butt and reminded ME that I have been preparing for this since July 2013 and I am READY no matter what the date. I am anxious but also THRILLED. Good luck to ALL!!

My surgery is on Friday...I'm a lil bummed because it's not till 5:45pm!!! That's a long day of NO eating or drinking!!

I'm on a clear liquid diet starting today (and it sucks the big one) sooo lethargic.

I'm a worrier too...so I totally understand. But I too am trying to stay positive! We got this!! :)

that's a long time to wait. Do you know how many surgeries your doctor is doing before you?

No...I have no idea. I'm a squeeze in as I was scheduled feb 4, got an upper respiratory infection and had to reschedule..and I chose another surgeon in the group, actually he's the founder if the practice.

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

      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?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
