Surgery on Wednesday, can't believe it's finally here.

Pre-op diet has gone well but mine seems "easy" compared to so many on liquids only.

My wife is taking a few days off to take care of me. We've been making homemade stock for the post op weeks before I can get back to solid food.

I'm self employed so I'm freaking out a bit about that. Hopefully I can get back to my computer pretty quick otherwise it just piles up.

Need to do some laundry and pack my hospital bag tomorrow.

Mine is on Wednesday as well! Can't believe it! I just made over 100 Jello shots(minus the alcohol ) for post op weeks. Feels like college all over again. So excited yet so nervous. Good luck to you!

A little frustrated today, nearly 2:00 and I still haven't received my call with a surgery time for tomorrow.

* You will receive a call the business day before your scheduled surgery with your surgery time

If I don't hear from someone by 3:00 I'm calling in and trying to find out myself.

About 5 hrs post op now...happy he was able to do a bypass.

So happy for you! I hope the recovery goes well!

Did they think they might not be able to do the bypass?

My surgery is scheduled for Monday and I keep having second thoughts and then I read that people eat 800-900 at a year out, This bothers me because you read so often to eat a minimum of 1200 calories for health reason...

Is this healthy to do long term?

I know I'm just having cold feet but I'm questioning this new lifestyle.

@@momto3E Thank you!

Yes momto3E. I had a revision from a lap band. So surgeon told me if there was too much scar tissue they might have to do a sleeve instead. But he said everything was good, so I got my bypass.

Can I ask why you wanted the bypass over the sleeve? I'm getting the bypass as well!

How are you feeling?
