I finally have a date! I feel like I'm being swept off my feet. I keep hearing the date over and over in my ears. I cant believe a year ago, I didn't even know there was such a cure, and here I am about to start living the healthy life I deserve. Its becoming real and I absolutely can not wait. I only know a few people who have gone through this, but I would welcome any comments or support!

Mine is Feb 1st, Ive been working so much that I havent had a whole lot of time to sit down and process it. It hit me hard last week and I couldn't sleep because my brain would not shut off due to upcoming surgery. Thank goodness I have an awesome primary doctor who got me in and helped me get some rest. 10 day count down had begun!

Forgive me if this is my second post, new here and trying to figure it out. My surgery is 2/1 as well. I can't believe its almost here, I would like to keep in touch during the process. Tomorrow starts Clear liquids which Im not looking forward to but it will be worth it.

No worries. I'm as nervous as can be I'm packing my hospital bag and getting everything ready. Yes let's stay in touch I'll see if I can private message you. It's nice to have a surgery buddy.

Day 5 post op... down 8 lbs!

SW 230

58 female

All and all a piece of cake! Surgery @ 7:30am

Felt sick 1st day anesthesia... little rough!

2nd day way better! Went home by 2:00pm

Day 3,4 Feeling pretty good! Had slight headache... not to bad!

Day 5

Getting getting pretty tired of liquids... everything's is becoming to sweet two more days and my world opens up to pudding, yogurt, creamy Soups ( no down 8 lbs! meal... woohoo!

Last two nights I

Cooked dinner for my husband... (not that I had to) I wanted to - to test myself to the max now.... and expose myself to food temptation big time! (Cause Ya can't cheat or You can harm your new little pouch! ...(possible end up in the hospital! ) I have got to change the way I look at food...my picking and mindlessly eating...to rid myself of my old habits!!!!

I can't believe how many times I "WOULD " of put food in my mouth.. while cooking dinner! It's was an eye opener to me! Taste here.. a pinch there!

I think each week will be a journey of what works and what doesn't fit me!

....till tomorrow!

      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!!
