Did you try to eat the whole egg or just a bit?

Probably just a bit too much. I don't really get a good warning when I should stop until I take one bite too many. Early on, portions are impossibly difficult to estimate. Good luck as you figure out your path.

your worst enemy is the anxiety... make sure to pack some gas x for your first over night and some good music to power you through the initial walks post-op . Good Luck and let us know how your doing along the way.

Try for 1/3 or 1/2 the first time. You don't want to make yourself miserable. Good luck!

No they never gave me one but I had like a Faja that I wore a couple days after the surgery and it felt good. I work for TSA so we'll see what happens tonight with these crazy passengers

      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!!
