Only 1 week left. Saw the dietician and surgeon today and was surprised when they didn’t put me on any type of a preop diet. Just said nothing after 8 pm the night before.

Wrapping up my first week of preop diet. I’ve had a few “moments” of wanting to gnaw on my arm but they’ve passed quickly. Down 8 pounds and feeling better! Less pressure in my lower back and my arthritic knees. March 11th cannot get here fast enough! Firmly planted on the losers bench!

If you are scheduled for surgery in March, start sharing those dates. Make some friends with people who are having surgery on the same day

My surgery was Mar 1. I am home resting. All in good. My gallbladder was removed at the same time. Gallbladder attacks are way worse then this. So glad I did it.

Congrats, Jojo! Glad to hear everything went well. I had my gallbladder out many years ago and remember the pain was awful! My surgery is on the 8th.

Happy healing 😊

I'm reporting to the hospital tomorrow (March 3) at 5:30 a.m. for my gastric bypass. I've lost 17 pounds during the two-week liquid phase and am excited to be on the other side!

        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!!
