Ah, we have a Fago de Chao here -- now THAT is a place I sadly won't be going to again after my surgery, LOL. If you've never been to a Brazilian steakhouse and you have guys to feed, these kinds of places are quite an experience!

Hi All,

Just received my insurance approval this morning and got a call from my surgeons office with my surgery date of March 28. I have a pre-op appointment on the 5th and I am so ready to get this done. Not too worried about the 2 week liquid diet as I have slowly been moving in this direction to get my body and mind ready. I have been lucky enough to have already lost almost 40 pounds from the start of my Nut. visits back in October and hope to be down 10 more pounds come surgery day.

This will be my first surgery so I am a bit nervous but I am super motivated.

Day 1 of pre-op diet: 829 calories/64 ounces of Water and YES I’m hungry!

I'm on day 8 and today was the first day I felt great. Every other day was a struggle and I felt horrible. My surgery is a week from today, so I'm trying to keep my eyes on the prize. Good luck and stay strong!!

Well, I have the flu. Like the legitimate influenza B flu. Thankfully they said I'm still good for March 5th as long as there's no pneumonia.

I'm now halfway through my 16 day pre op and finding that my moods are all over the place and I'm definitely more irritable than normal.

        Have a great Wednesday too! Sorry you're hungry all the time, I'm pretty much the same..and I'm sick of eating the same food all the time.

      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!!
