@@Twuzzy, you and I have the 7th! Are you starting to get nervous?

I am getting very nervous. I start my 2week liquid diet in a little over 24 hrs, and am worried about my resolve there. How are you doing?

I'm one of the lucky ones - my surgeon doesn't require pre-op diet. Trying to keep busy to distract myself from the fact that we are just 2 weeks away. I'm both nervous and excited. Good luck to all of us!

Nervous here too! But a wild bout of IBS last week and trip to ER in an ambulance shows me it's time to change. I need to lose weight and give up dairy, beef, and fried food and find a new outlet in life

Well, I start my pre op diet in the morning. My surgery is on June 4th. Wish me luck, I am going to give her hell and hopefully come out on the other side better than I am now. ;-)

I am scheduled for June 27, 2016. I start my pre-op on June 6. It was kind of weird, a lot of people seemed to be on a stricter pre-op diet. I have a fatty liver and my pre-op diet consists of 4 Protein shakes per day, lunch and dinner is either a Healthy Choice Frozen meal with vegetables or 6 oz lean meat with one cup of vegetables. I was surprised at this as every diet I have seen online has been so much less. I really want to make sure my liver shrinks so the surgery can be done laproscopically. I am having the surgery done at one of the top hospitals in Massachusetts and a very trusted surgeon so I know they have experience at what they are doing so am following exactly as they say

      Thank you everyone for your well wishes! I totally forgot I wrote an update here... I'm one week post op today. I gained 15 lbs in water weight overnight because they had to give me tons of fluids to bring my BP up after surgery! I stayed one night in the hospital. Everything has been fine except I seem to have picked up a bug while I was there and I've been running a low grade fever, coughing, and a sore throat. So I've been hydrating well and sleeping a ton. So far the Covid tests are negative.
      I haven't been able to advance my diet past purees. Everything I eat other than tofu makes me choke and feels like trying to swallow rocks. They warned me it would get worse before it gets better, so lets hope this is all normal. I have my follow up on Monday so we'll see. Living on shakes and soup again is not fun. I had enough of them the first time!! LOL

      Still purging all of the larger clothing. This morning, a shirt that I ADORED wearing ended up on top. Hard to let it go, but it was also hard to let go of those habits that also no longer serve my highest good. Onward and upward!

      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!!
