I have surgery tomorrow at 6:15 am!!! Eeeeeekkk i'm excited, nervous, scared, etc. I have so many emotions and thoughts running through my head. I'm terrified I won't be successful, due to the fact that I couldn't even do 1 week of pure Protein shakes:( I can't and won't back down now, but we'll see what happens. Wish me Luck!!

Good luck to you…..

The past is the past and you cannot correct your mistakes….look forward to tomorrow knowing that you WILL succeed and follow your doctors orders to a "T"…so that you heal properly and see the success you are looking for.

After surgery I always remembered why I really chose this route…it was the hardest decision I've ever made and one of the best. Not everyday is peaches and cream but I take it one day at a time and success has been on my side so far.

Remember no one is perfect. We just have to do what we can to be personally successful….for in the end, no one will be accountable for you BUT YOU!

Did your doctor prescribe anything for nausea? My dr sent a prescription for me to pick up before my surgery so I will have it the day I come home. I am so nervous. My biggest fear is the pain and nausea. Hope your doing well today.

Yikes! I have my pre-op tomorrow morning...I will definitely be asking about filling meds for the pain and nausea. A slippage scares me too. When I had my C-section with son, I threw up as soon as the anesthesea wore off. Also when we left the hospital, had to stop to fill the meds. The wait was excruciating. Want to be prepared. I hope you're feeling better, sweetie!

      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!!
