I seem to get through the day ok, but the evenings when I get home are the worst! Moody and hungry are understatements to describe how I feel. I'm only 1/3 of the way through it....uuugh!

I agree. Dont let yourself get hungry. I have been reading up on the liver shrinking diet since there is such a variety of diets out there (im lucky and get to eat food and shakes) I read that you dont want to go into surgery malnurished because you could have more complications and take longer to heal. If your doc puts you on all liquid, at the very least have some extra shakes.< /p>

I am having surgery July 9th. No pre-opt diet for me! I can eat anything up until midnight.

Good luck everyone! I am so excited!

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
