I start the pre-op liquid diet in a few weeks, i'm not looking forward to that. I'm concerned about how I'm going to stick to it! What are everyone's major concerns about the surgery? For me it's the nausea and being able to intake enough fluids - I'm hoping for the best but going into it knowing it could be pretty difficult those first few months.

I'm doing mine in Mexico, I'm concerned about several things. 1) no doctor follow ups, 2) self control, 3) being sick to whatever stomach I have left. I have acid reflux now and am on meds. I can hurl over anything; coughing, dry throat, brushing my teeth. Surgery/anesthesia makes me nauseous and 4) what if I have some undiagnosed underlying issue such as hypothyroidism and I still don't lose like I expect?

I hear you, there's so much to think about! All we can do is expect the best but be aware of what can arise so we aren't completely caught off guard if issues come up. I'm praying for everything to run smoothly! :)

      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!!

      Today was rough...
      I've been experiencing a headache all day today that just won't go away. I'm thinking it's now progressing into a migraine. Does anyone else get headaches from taking vitamin B12? I did some research and learned that usually a lack of B12 causes headaches. But I've noticed when I take it, I have reoccurring headaches. 😫
