Hi

My surgery date is the 15/09. I am still extremely nervous and seem to be getting more so as the days close in.

I am on Day 3 of the Pre Op diet and am wondering if I am going to make it LOL... I am not hungry just craving.

I hope everything goes really well for you and would love to come check in on everyones progress as I am on my own.

Good Luck :)

teesaa, amber, jusarte, princi, noforthefaint.........hope I am not forgetting someone.

I am exactly one week out...........I have my surgical call today where they will tell me the time to checkin.

I am so nervous today. Hard to concentrate.

Noforthefaint, I know this site has a FB page. Did you tell us the FB you started? If you did I missed it, could you let us know again or send me a PM.

Thanks everyone.

Prayers and good thoughts are with our pals that are having surgery today.

Keep smiling.

Surgery 9/14, Clear Liquids started 9/7. Down 17.5 lbs. feel okay, but tired. Started full fluids this week, gives more variety, eating yogurt, etc.

tried a Syntrax Protein powder today, "crystal Sky" was very good.

Get full fast. Was hungry last week, not so much this week. First post op doctor visit tomorrow.

No regrets!

Surgery 9/14, post op appt yesterday and 17 lbs lost. Started soft foods, tuna and boiled eggs, refried Beans, etc. with no issues. Only problem is I'm very weak, showering is rough and I have to rest after. Supposed to go back to work on Monday and a bit worried that I won't have my strength back. Getting Protein, taking Vitamins, etc., doc said probably because of drop in BP. Off BP meds as of Monday.

        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!!
