Hey everyone! I'm scheduled for March 3 and am both excited for my new life and nervous of the surgery. Seeing all of the success stories in here really helps with the nerves. I am also so grateful that people are very honest with what to expect post surgery.

What did you do for your liquid diet? What Protein shakes did you like? My surgery is scheduled for March 23, freaking out a little or LOT.

I love the GNC Lean shakes and the Atkins Shakes so yummy! I also found a new one V8 actually has a Protein shake which was a treat when I was wanting sometime different only thing it's 12 grams of Protein. Also with 4 Protein Shakes a day I have sugar free Jello and sugar free Popsicles. For lunch and dinner clear broth (chicken or beef) and of course the 64oz of Water which at times I added liquid Crystal Light. Good Luck you can do this ????

I'm new to this site and I'm hoping to meet other March sleevers for sharing and support. I started researching this surgery over a year ago and finally started to put everything into place in October 2014. I have a March 31st surgery date and I could't be happier. I've done all my homework and feel very confident that I'm doing the right thing. Now that I have a date, it can't come fast enough. I'd love to chat with you.

        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!!
