Recommended Posts

I'm scheduled for 10/26 down here in Texas. I'm definitely feeling a mixture of things...but I'm mostly excited to start this next chapter in my life!! I spent my childhood, teens, 20's and half my 30's being overweight-super morbidly obese. This ends later this month! I'm finally taking control! I want to set a better example for my daughter!!

Hello. I am having surgery on Oct 19th!!! I do not have to do a preop diet. Just maintain my weight where they wanted me to be and I am. And the night before surgery I cant eat anything after 6pm.

Nervous-excited- ready for this new adventure. I need to go buy some loose shorts and teeshirt for the stay and some slippers. I have bought some broth for the first stage then some puddings and cream Soups for the second stage. I want to be ready. Hoping I dont have to take 4 weeks off. but we will see. I want to be safe and heal. Good luck to all. Hope we can connect with our journey on here. hugss

For the people who are doing a 2 week diet what are you about to consume? Also I saw someone else who had an October Facebook group, if I created one would anyone like to join also? We could ask questions and such and help with support, recipes, workouts, etc. please let me know.

Hi, I'm having the sleeve 10/14. I just created a Facebook group for October sleevers support. It's secret so nobody can search it or see the posts. If you'd like to be added, message me your email.

      Happy Wednesday!
       
      I hope everyone is having a lovely week so far! 
      It's been a bit of a struggle this last week...I'm hungry ALL the time.

        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!!
