Eek it's right around the corner to October! I love knowing there are other people going though the same progress as me!

I'm having doubts, I told my husband that on Monday I'm canceling again (we went through this last weekend) but now it's Monday I've decided to not cancel. When I choose to have the surgery I know no matter what I needed to stand by that choice come he'll or high Water. So even though I want to cancel because of my fears I won't.

I fear that I won't lose any weight at all, which is almost impossible but I feel like I'll be that 0.1% who doesn't lol

Good luck everyone. Hope your all going well xx

I used Circle Of Care in 2007 for my Lap Band and last year when I had the emergency surgery to have it removed because it slipped.

I decided to go a different route this time. A whole new team.

He is one of the most experienced Doctors in this field so you'll be in good hands! Have you started your pre-op diet yet?

That's a great idea...I've been thinking of adding a Protein Drink per day but I don't want to get sick of them before surgery lol :)

I'm so excited for you. I've been hoarding food in readiness including jelly packets, Soups etc. I start my pre op diet on the 7th October. I will be interested to see how you go with your surgery.

@@anm1979 that is amazing!! Maybe I'll implement that type of diet starting this week - it'll be way less of a shock when day before surgery is nothing but liquids.< /p>

      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!!
