My date is march 17. Can't wait !!

Good luck to all of you having surgery tomorrow! Keep us posted!

I'm scheduled for the 26th of March and will be alone when I'm recovering. Any suggestions that will make that easier?

Surgery went well yesterday. I had some nausea but pain was not bad. Today I feel a lot better and will be going home this afternoon. Hope everyone has a great experience too!!!

I'm scheduled for the 25th. (My husband and myself are doing it together with same day surgery). We are here waiting to get our shakes and stuff for our 2 week pre-op all liquid diet. Nervous as can be. Goodness. I hope these 2 weeks fly by.

Thanks I will need it!

8 days out: got my staples and my tube out today. That was a really weird feeling, like bad period cramps, but I'm so glad it's gone. I even ran some errands on my own. I'm super tired now. Going to chill on the couch for the rest of the day with my dogs. Oh! I almost forgot, my surgeon said I had lost 28lbs. I'm not sure that's right actually but from the day I came home from the hospital I'm down 24lbs on my scale, with about 14lbs of that being excess IV fluid.

Just got final approval and awaiting for scheduled surgery date. I have requested the 25th. We will see if they can pull it off. Good thing I started my liquid diet on the 11th as we planned. I can do this ! Unfortunately liquid diet in Europe translates to week long drunken binge. I will be back to the states on the 20th with EGD scheduled for the 21st.
