Woohoo, finally got my surgery date....October 17th!!! Who's my surgery twin? Let's share and keep checking in pre-op and post-op. I'm 5'8" and was diagnosed with PCOS 2 years ago when I realized everything I tried to do to lose weight failed. I started my journey in April of this year and I've completed my 6 month requirements on September 6th. My surgeon (Dr. Merola) submitted my paperwork to the insurance (Emblem Health HIP NY) yesterday. Just waiting on my approval.

HW: 317

CW: 315

GW: 1st- 250, 2nd- 200, 3rd- 170

I have been following it well for last 5 days. Today I had two shakes and caved to eat a normal dinner:(. I think because I haven’t eaten real food in several days, the real food made my stomach upset. Back at the liquid diet until surgery.

Yes I am on day 5 today.I am feeling positive today and thinking how wonderful it is going to be my The summer next year I will be slimmer.

Keep up the good work it will be all worth it in the end.

      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!!
