And I am already on mine, Day9, even though my surgery isn't until September 5th, I am doing 4+ weeks, according to studies my,liver will be 12% smaller and leaner from when this diet started. That should rid of. me from the NASH, most obese,have some degree of it from just bring fat. It hasn't been easy but I plan to feel much better after this is over

My surgery is Thursday the 16th. Started preop diet on the 2nd. It's been pretty hard to do, starving, stomach growling, no energy. Just looking for the next step to where I won't be hungry.

@AJP I'm feeling the same way. Nausea has become a big problem for me too. I keep reminding myself this will all be worth it in the long run.

        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!!
